In my math classroom, my students use paper and pencils daily. However, many of my students come to class without paper or pencils. The majority of my students live at or below poverty level and their families can't afford supplies throughout the semester. The students who come to class prepared but need to sharpen their pencils are unable to do so without injuring their hands using the manual pencil sharper that is in my classroom. Most students either asks to go next door to sharpen their pencil (and lose instructional time) or they just sit with a broken pencil. Without adequate supplies in the classroom, my students are at a disadvantage academically.
These supplies will allow students to participate in class, complete their assignments and become academically successful. Through the use of the supplies, pencils and paper will be available for the students who it. A safe sharpener will be also available for learning to continue in the classroom and not to be hindered by broken lead. These supplies will help my students and my instruction so much. I thank you for your generosity towards my classroom.
