This project will fund several items that are essential to the instruction in my classroom. We are a Title 1 school and funds are limited. This year, my students are focusing on vocabulary, writing and literacy. The materials I ask for in this project are essential in their academic language development. As a new teacher, this year I want to give my students the best possible instruction to achieve a well rounded academic education. Funds are scarce at my school and materials are hard to come by. A variety of books are needed in my classroom to increase their academic language, and to interest and inspire them. A variety of books in their home language is also needed so that they can retain the language. My students need English/Spanish dictionaries to help them when they are writing and reading. Making the lessons culturally relevant to them is also an integral part of their learning; for this they need a globe that we can constantly reference during our lessons. A set of headphones is also needed for differentiated instruction when my students need to work on a tablet for listening skills.
