My Project

My class includes 26 third grade students from diverse backgrounds. About one-fourth of the students speak English as a second language and the majority of students come from low socioeconomic backgrounds. Despite these differences, all my students come to school each day ready to learn. The smiles on their faces and the excitement in their voices show me how ready they are to do their best! As an educator, my hope is to create learners who are curious about the world around them, who are excited to take on challenges, who are willing to take risks, who are resilient and flexible in the face of failure, and above all, treat others with kindness.

Please consider helping my students with necessary items, such as Expo Erasers, card stock for art, magic erasers for cleaning, lotion for their little hands, staplers, and another wobble stool to allow for movement.

The supplies that will be funded through this project will give my students the tools they need to stay engaged and ready to learn in the classroom.

Thank you for your consideration and generosity!
