My Students

I teach an amazing group of fifth and sixth graders in Los Angeles. All students receive free breakfast, and approximately 32% receive free or reduced-price lunch. We are a great multicultural family that loves to learn. Some of my students speak Spanish, Tagalog, and Armenian at home.

Many of my students are artistic and creative thinkers.

Having a split level class means that there will times when one grade level will be working independently while I teach the other group.

We have a classroom library, but need a cozy rug for our students to feel comfortable when we have independent reading time.

My Project

My students love to work on many projects during our school year. Flexible seating helps to foster a collaborative and creative classroom.

I have requested a small rug so my students will have a comfortable place to read their books, or have discussions in small groups.

I have also requested dry erase markers so my students can participate in our Whiteboard Math Review activities. The Post-it Easel pads will be used when my students work in small groups in language arts, science, and social studies to document their learning.

Your help donating to this project will help this year's students and many students in future years.
