Moving into upper high school and soon "the real world," my students need materials like poster pads to help with collaborative learning. These posters can be expensive, but they last a long time because they are used by groups rather than individuals. The posters are great tools to allow students to work together to process and present their learning. They have an added bonus of giving students pride and ownership over their work because it can be displayed for classmates and the rest of the school to see. We also need binders and common school supplies like paper and pencils. My students have eight classes per day, and most have extracurriculars, jobs, or family responsibilities to juggle. Binders will keep their class work and notes together as well as house printed copies of a planner. Planner use is essential to student success, and teaching this skill/habit will be a priority in class this year. Given the high number of students qualifying for free and reduced lunch plus the lasting financial impact of Hurricane Harvey, many students and families must make significant sacrifices to provide such materials. Hopefully, this campaign can alleviate those sacrifices for some students most in need.
