My Students

Our Social Studies curriculum is focused on studying different communities around the world. We do not have a globe for the students to use as a visual aid and the maps are outdated. These tools are essential in helping the students to gain a better understanding of our world.

My students families come from many different "Communities Around the World." My students would love the opportunity to explore and learn more about the different countries that their families came from.

By obtaining these materials, the students would be able to study their Social Studies curriculum, "Communities Around the World," in depth.

My Project

My students are eager to discover, explore and learn more about our world. The resources that I am requesting will give them this opportunity. The Intelliglobe and US and World Maps will be used as hands-on visual aides. They students will use these materials during our lessons to learn facts and compare and contrast the different countries of the world.

The Intelliglobe and Maps will enhance my lessons and help to keep the students focused and interested in the material I am presenting.

It will help to educate them about the world and give them the opportunity to have hands-on activities.
