My Students

I teach in a Title I school where more than half of the students are from low income families with both parents working long hours. This means that, many times, parents just don't have the extra time to support their children's education at home, but they do the best they can, and it shows with our families.

"I can do it!"

That is the excitement I get to hear when my students learn something new, be it learning a new word, starting to read simple sentences and small books, mastering a new math skill or exploring a science topic.

My students enter with various levels of 1st grade readiness and spend so much time working together to learn and build each other up to become successful!

My Project

Being in a Title I school with more than 50% of the students from low income families, many of my students come to school hungry or without a daily snack.

My goal this year is to help improve my students' health and focus by providing them with a daily snack throughout the year.

When my students are hungry, they are distracted. When they are distracted, they do not learn to their fullest potential.

My students have not had to worry about snack being provided for the beginning of the year. Now we are running low, and they should not have to worry about whether or not their parents were able to pack a snack. This should not be a main focus for my boys and girls. Providing these healthy snacks for my class will help to provide more focused learning times in my classroom!
