My Students

My school is made up of a racially, economically, linguistically, and culturally-diverse group of elementary students who are passionate about using technology in the classroom and eager to have teachers who integrate technology effectively into their instruction.

Although my school is historically low-performing, the administration, staff, and students are committed to changing perceptions, breaking barriers, fostering growth, and achieving our goals.

With your help, we can continue our growth by fostering a professional environment of collaboration and learning in which teachers master the technological tools and strategies needed to help our students be successful. Unfortunately, my school is lacking tremendously in resources and funding, and we were provided with hardly any materials.

Although they live in one of the most exciting and progressive cities in the world, the overwhelming majority live in extreme poverty, and most receive free lunches. The one thing linking all my scholars together is a love for learning that has not yet been altered by the challenges facing them daily. I passionately want them to love school and be motivated to gain as much knowledge as possible, with their enthusiasm for school

My Project

Hands on learning helps students become engaged and active learners! I am seeking these learning materials to engage my students in small groups.

Literacy in a kindergarten classroom is the foundations set to help young children become life long readers.

This grant will help me make literacy and phonics fun during center time and small group. These games will get students excited about reading. This will help me engage my scholars during center time.

Please help me excite my beginning readers and teach them to LOVE reading through these resources.
