My Project

Students will utilize these materials to regularly keep themselves organized and prepared for class sessions. Despite major cuts to our school's 2024–2025 budget, we want to be able to provide the most important materials for all of our kids. We will use the World Maps to provide visual learning of geographical areas that we will be touched upon in our Social Studies unit. The Headphones can help students block out distractions and focus on their work, especially if they have trouble focusing in noisy environments or have ADHD.

Your donations will help get my students started with the basic materials to keep them organized and engaged in the classroom.

Lastly, the book baggies will be used to help students build a reading life with accessibility, ease of use, and organization. By storing books in one location, book baggies can support teachers and students in maintaining organization. Book baggies can be convenient for students who need to access their reading materials in and out the classroom.
