My Project

The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my ELL students will help them tackle their daily lessons and build English language skills through focus, student-interest and engagement. The Kindle will be utilized to download engaging books that align with our daily lessons, enriching our reading sessions with topics in history and science, as well as excerpts from longer literary works.

Drawing tablets offer a versatile platform for both creative expression and educational enhancement.

In creative contexts, they enable users to produce digital art, illustrations, and designs with precision and ease. Educationally, drawing tablets facilitate the modeling and visualization of complex, multi-step math problems. The standing desk will allow me the opportunity to move freely around the classroom and have a place to keep my teacher guide nearby for student support. I have also included some fun and practical items to bring color and organization into our learning environment. The sharpeners, file folders, markers, and chart paper will help me organize the new EL curriculum my district provided for me to help my students reach their learning goals. There are many activity pages to organize and anchor charts to create! The two digital clocks will help me keep track of time in the 2 classrooms I work out of since our built in clock system is no longer working in our building. And finally, I have included some items to help reward students who are going above and beyond with the Jolly Ranchers and items to help maintain focus for friends who are feeling overly fidgety during the school day with an assortment of fidgets. Thank you for your support to help my students reach their full potential in the classroom!
