My Project

My students are incredibly special—they come from diverse backgrounds, many of them speaking English as a second language, and many also have individualized education plans (IEPs) to support their learning needs. Each day, they face unique challenges, but they also show incredible resilience and dedication in their pursuit of knowledge. This project aims to provide them with the tools and motivation they need to keep progressing.

The specific items I’m requesting will make a direct and meaningful impact on their learning.

Throughout the school year, supplies like folders, pencils, pencil sharpeners, and scissors have been used up or misplaced. These basic items are essential for staying organized and engaged in class. By replenishing these materials, I can ensure that every student has the resources they need to succeed without interruptions or distractions.

In addition to basic supplies, I am also requesting tangible prizes to motivate my students to continue striving for success. For my English as a second language learners and students with IEPs, having small rewards such as fidget toys, stickers, slime, and other sensory items will help keep them excited about learning. These prizes also serve as incentives for consistent attendance, participation, and effort in class, which are critical to their growth.

My goal for this project is twofold: First, to provide students with the tools they need to stay organized and fully engaged in their learning. Second, to offer them meaningful rewards that will help them stay motivated, confident, and eager to come back to class every day. These prizes and supplies will support both their academic and emotional well-being, ensuring that they feel valued and empowered to keep learning.

Thank you for considering supporting my students and helping me create a positive, motivating, and resource-filled environment for them to thrive in.
