My Project

My students tend to be hungry throughout the day. My school does not have the means to provide snacks daily and neither do I. Most of my parents also don't have the money to provide extra snacks. My first graders are going hungry throughout the day, and some of them don't go home to a meal.

My classroom also needs markers and crayons.

Again, my school doesn't have the means to continue to pay for these items and neither do my parents. With teaching first grade, we use a lot of markers and crayons.

My students are extremely special to me and hold a special place in my heart. They are very caring and want to excel in school.
