My Project

Hello potential donors!

I requested test dividers because most of my students work hard and will know the information but will often fail their tests due to crippling test anxiety.

Dividers have been proven to give them that sense of safety and security that often cancels the test anxiety. It makes them feel as if they are in the room alone while improving focus. I requested erasers because I teach math and erasers tend to leave very quickly. The tub of wipes will benefit them tremendously because the flu, COVID and strep among other things are running rapid in our school and I have limited wipes so the desks aren't able to be wiped down daily, I started off buying wipes and realized that we use a lot of them and that me purchasing them would not be sustainable. I asked for the white boards because it'll help students to be able to quickly communicate an answer to me in a way that will be fun and keep them engaged in the math. What makes my students special would have to be their hearts and will power, most of my students face chaotic, difficult and unfair home lives. The resilience that they demonstrate is truly astounding and God given because as children they take on so much but still find a way to smile. I am a second year teacher so I don't have much in my stash so whatever you buy, myself as well as my students will be grateful. God bless and remember that Jesus loves you regardless!
