My Project

These items will significantly enhance my student's learning experience by providing engaging and interactive tools for review and practice. An Apple TV will allow us to access educational apps, videos, and games that reinforce key concepts. Reviewing reading comprehension cards will provide targeted practice in a variety of reading skills. A light buzzer will add excitement and competition to classroom games, making learning more fun and engaging. Dry erasers, markers, pencil sharpeners, pencils, pens, highlighters, headphones, and erasers are essential supplies for daily classroom activities.

My goal for this project is to create a stimulating learning environment that equips our students with the skills and knowledge necessary to excel on the state assessment.

By providing them with the necessary resources and tools, I hope to improve their reading comprehension skills, increase their motivation, and ultimately raise our school's pass rate on the state test.

Our school is special because of our dedicated staff and our commitment to serving our students, many of whom come from low-income families. Despite facing significant challenges, our students are resilient and eager to learn. With your support, we can provide them with the resources they need to succeed and achieve their dreams.
