My Students

My students live in a low socioeconomic community. Most of them receive free or reduced-price lunch based on their financial status. My students attend a Title I school in Miami, FL. They also have little support from home. Many of them are being raised in single parent households. These students are in great need of technology equipment and school supplies. As a teacher in a high poverty school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, they always walk into the classroom every day full of life, excited and ready to learn new skills. I am looking forward to providing them a new taste of a learning experience that can help them explore new ideas and improve their academic performance. In addition, they are very creative, clever and very punctual when it comes to learning new ideas in school. They like to move, read stories and need lots of positive attention. I am a teacher who always believes that every student can achieve something positive in their lives, regardless of their ethnic and socioeconomic background.

My Project

The laptop and supplies that I am requesting for my students will increase their participation during math and reading instruction. The laptop and headphones will be used during small and large group instruction. The paper, pencils, markers, glue and other supplies will be used to write and create books. Your generous donation will provide me with the tools that I need to help students reach their academic potential in reading as well in math. The technology resources will change our reading program structure and raise students achievement level. By implementing the technology model, my students will begin to show growth during differentiated instruction and weekly assessment. My goal is to equip students with the best education in which they can play a better role in this society. I truly need your support to help make this wonderful dream a reality!
