My Project

My students are a joy for me because I learn so much from them. I love that despite my students coming from lower-income backgrounds, they come to school eager to learn. Most come from diverse backgrounds, so we have many enriched discussions and educate each other on different cultures and holidays. I believe in a comfortable learning environment and good humor, so we laugh often in my class.

With the spring season upon us, we are in need of some classroom basics and replenishment supplies to finish the year strong!

The copy paper is always needed to ensure students have their necessary academic work. Unfortunately, paper is always missing from our copy machines. The shredder will be used to protect my students' identities on thick stacks of legal educational documents that must be updated and reprinted every school year. The magic erasers are needed for students to use on their dry erase boards. Plastic bags are needed to keep track of students' supplies and to send their materials home. Kleenex are always needed for our constant allergy seasons, bringing many student sniffles, sneezes, and germs to wipe away. The filters are needed to replace the old and help keep our classroom environment cleaner. The Brain Quest materials will be used for student academic enrichment.

Thank you for your support and these needed materials!
