My Students

Intertwined in my classroom are students who come with various learning and developmental disabilities. I am a fifth grade self-contained educator in Brooklyn, NY. Throughout our academic day, my students are continuously on a journey building their knowledge and comprehension skills in all academic areas. In using hands on STEM activities and constructing engaging academic tasks, my students come in everyday motivated to learn new things.

All of the students in my classroom come from diverse socioeconomic environments, but despite this minor setback all of my students show in their own unique way a passion for learning.

As they grow as a community of learners, it is essential for them to be provided with engaging content and educational tools that will help them grow academically. As a teacher, they have taught me how to be diverse in my instruction, as it is required of me to help them with their individual needs. It is my goal to give them everything they need to continue on their path towards academic success.

My Project

In order for my students to start the school year off on the right foot, these materials, such as, notebooks, colored pencils and binders, will be used to give them a fighting chance. These supplies will give my students the opportunity to dive right into learning without worrying about whether they have the proper tools required for class activities and lessons. My students need the support, as well as the necessary resources, in order to be academically successful this school year. In providing these tools for them, there will be no stopping their progress and learning can flow without being obstructed because of the lack of available supplies.
