My Students

I am a 5th grade teacher in a low income area, in Brooklyn, NY, teaching children who attend a Title I school.

My students are bright, responsible, energetic and curious to explore and learn new things.

Despite the many challenges of this upcoming school year, my students are all excited to be in school, and in person! School is a safe place for them to learn and grow, and my wish is to continue to make it safe for them mentally, academically and physically. Materials donated via DonorsChoose.org will truly be beneficial for their educational journey and help keep them safe as we embark on another unprecedented school year!

My Project

If our project is fully funded, my students will be one step-closer to becoming successful, independent, and positive contributors to society. When students come into the classroom, and see that it is well stocked for for their learning and safety it will be a motivator like no other! The cleaning supplies will help our room stay sanitized, and the laminating paper will offer protection to important reference charts and once laminated they can be sanitized as students use them to reference throughout their learning. Students will participate in many "unplugged activities" which require art and office supplies. Unplugged activities are basically a collection of learning activities that teach Computer Science and Math through engaging games, projects, and puzzles that use paper, cards, string, crayons, markers, etc. Finally, many of the items in this project will help to create an organized learning environment.
