My Project

I am proud to call myself a lifelong Brooklynite. I'm even prouder to say that I teach language arts and reading to a terrific group of 8th graders at a Title I middle school in beautiful Brooklyn, New York. Many of my students face challenges on a daily basis that most of us cannot even dream of, yet they are always looking to the future and for a better life. They know that with hard work and determination, they can make the world a better place.

Have you ever had to tell a child that they just can't have something that you know they need?

Lately it feels like all I do is say no. No, the printer is on the fritz again. No you can't print, we have no ink. "NO!" should NOT be part of a child's daily vocabulary at school, but with budget cuts it has become a sad reality. When a student constantly hears “NO!” it eats at their soul and makes them feel like they are not worth a lot – but my students ARE!

All of my students enjoy the professional way that their work looks when it is typed. However, when it comes time to produce a finished project, most are unable to, as they do not have access to a printer or ink at home. This inability to access simple technology that most of us take for granted really impacts the self-esteem of our students. The inability of my students to meet this simple demand is causing stress and low self-esteem which YOU can easily fix!
