Most of my 3rd graders come from low income families and many are academically behind. We are in a portable so space is limited with 28 kids. I am returning to teaching after 15 years and really want my students to come to a place that is engaging, inviting, invigorating and motivating. I know I can build this intrinsically - and that these items are just material things - but I do believe they add benefit to the classroom. I have to admit, our classroom is on the bare side! I would love for my students to have access to more books (lots of books) and places to go to read and work that are unique, fun and inviting (big pillows, bean bags, big lovies). I want more for them than I can provide! We will continue to work hard on being kind, encouraging one another, and being self motivated and responsible learners yet I am still hoping that these kids get a few surprises delivered to them soon. They deserve it :)
