My Project

The materials requested will impact each of my inner-city students. By supplying them with new folders, notebooks, and pencils, they will have the tools needed to be confident in their learning. By providing each child with the hygiene products needed, you are ensuring a confident start to their day and helping build their self-image.

In our class, we thrive on circle discussions; whether it is how to apply our most recent mathematics lesson to real-life scenarios or discussing the historic changes to Baltimore observed in a history lesson, creating an environment where each voice is elevated is central to our classroom.

With a classroom rug, we can meet more intimately and have more variety in instruction. With a portable markerboard, we can learn just about anywhere, in class or out on the playground.

With your help, these future leaders of Baltimore will be equipped to soar!
