My children all come from different challenging circumstances including being homeless, displacement, and abuse. While being exposed to those challenges and having special needs, it sometimes gets difficult for them to cope. These students rely on me to make our SETSS, Technology, Math class and club a comforting, safe, and an inviting place where they can continue to learn and thrive. Providing them with tools such as books, pens, pencils, dry erase markers, and much more can help create a more comfortable space, to create conversations within the classroom of race, ethnicity, and community. We are also requesting these materials for us to use in our writing center. Writing will be brought to life in their pieces, allowing them to recreate and bring life to their imagination. This will help them build their sense of comfort and enhance vocabulary.
