My Students

The students in my community are motivated to learn by innovation and critical thinking. They come from low socio-economic backgrounds and therefore have minimal resources and opportunities at home. The majority come from immigrant families. The classroom, the school, and the community are all places for them to explore and excel. With the nearby park/recreation center, involvement from the local police department, and several community led activities on the school campus, the students and their families are exposed to various windows of opportunity to flourish and thrive.

My Project

We all know the importance of high quality visuals in a classroom filled with ESL students from immigrant families. They are eager learners and need that extra help to success in a short amount of time. A colored printer will do just that!

I will be able to assist my students by printing colorful images which will provide the visual aid they need to make connections.

The All-Purpose Teaching Cart will assist with keeping supplies, English Language Learner games, ESL books, and more items in a neat organized manner so that they are easily accessible by the ESL students and groups.
