My Project

The funds will go towards purchasing materials that will enhance reading and writing activities by making learning more interactive and effective. I will also acquire tools to improve classroom management, ensuring a smooth and organized learning experience. One of the goals for my students is to strengthen their writing skills, and the document camera will help them to share their writing for peer review. Additionally, I will prioritize safety by adding essential items to keep the classroom secure, while also incorporating elements of fun and outdoor games to create a lively and motivating atmosphere for my students. Your support will make a significant impact on their educational experience!

I am grateful to have my students throughout their four years of high school French and am looking to redo the space we have shared for twelve out of my twenty-six year career!
