My Students

My students are in a full-time ICT second-grade classroom. Many of my students come from low-income families. Several are English language learners. There are a few that come from single-parent (or single-grandparent) households.

All of my students are unique individuals who are always eager to learn and be engaged in exciting activities.

My diverse second graders come from a variety of backgrounds and have different needs and want. All of my students are eager to learn with open minds, ready to be filled with knowledge.

Our class has become their second family. They are very energetic and enjoy working with each other, love projects, and strive to do their best. All in all, they are a group of awesome kids!

My Project

A teaching easel will give me a place to create and refer back to our class-created "anchor charts" as we learn new concepts. They will later be hung around the classroom for all to see. A teaching easel will give me a place to work on a whiteboard or with magnetic materials when teaching a whole group or small group lessons to students who are just learning to read and write the English language. A teaching easel will provide a space for magnetic letters or whiteboard markers that students may use independently during our reading block, as well as dividing space to create an additional learning center. As you can see, this one item will have MANY uses in our classroom! Please help me to support the needs of my students. They are a wonderful, enjoyable group and they work hard every day to improve their reading and writing skills, but we need your help to really make it happen.

Your donation will make it possible for me to create a better structure and flow for my reading and writing lessons and enable a powerful visual aid for those students who need to see the writing process in action, therefore helping my students to succeed
