My Project

My students are in fourth grade and are curious and ambitious to be the best learners they can be. They’re always ready to explore something new, and love hands-on materials in the classroom. We are a team teaching classroom with not only special needs students, but students that are just leaning the English language. Our classroom is diverse and willing to learn.

This year we need more composition notebooks, headphones, and dry erase whiteboards and markers to help foster our learning.

I am also asking for disinfecting wipes to help us stay healthy enough to continue learning.

We will use the composition notebooks and headphones together to advance a love of digital learning, but still needing to hold on to the old school importance of scrap paper in our notebooks.

The dry erase whiteboard and markers will help foster more independence during whole class and small group learning. All of these items will be used to help my students become an important part of their learning. Please help us.
