My Students

My fifth-grade students reside in the Upper West Side of Manhattan. Although many of my students struggle financially, they are the most dedicated, resilient and kind-hearted children you will ever meet. Their passions include dancing, athletics, video games, and drawing.

If you were to visit my classroom you would see excited learners, hear engaging discussions, and feel the electricity of a very strong classroom community.

Some examples of the incredible work we are doing include advocacy reading clubs, rigorous math discussions, and persuasive essays.

My Project

My fifth graders adore reading! Comfy and cozy seating would help them to focus and enjoy chapter books, articles, and graphic novels they are reading in class. You can help us by donating bean bags for the classroom.

I want my students to be excited about reading and know that they can be comfortable while doing so!

A bean bag will also be used in our classroom "Chill Out Corner" where students can go to reflect, relax and cool down after recess.

I can't wait to see the smiles on my students' faces when they see their new classroom bean bags!
