My Students

Our classroom is an open and inviting environment designed to foster independent student learning. My students are thirsty for new materials to continue their education.

I teach in a public urban multi-age Montessori school with sixty-five first through sixth-grade students.

My students learn through small group and individual lessons, research and inquiry, and by going out into our community. My students come from all different backgrounds racially and socioeconomically and live in an urban setting. My co-teacher and I are piloting a combined Montessori 1st-6th grade classroom.

My students are involved in social justice and environmental conscious movements, taking a stand and trying to better the world. Our students work hard with the resources they have to follow their passions and find meaning in their education.

My Project

There is nothing more sought after in an elementary classroom when there is a project due date than a fine point black Sharpie marker. You would not believe how they are fought over and the desperation that sets in. Will I finish on time? Will it look good? Ahhh - I need a Sharpie!

In a Montessori classroom children are taught to beautify their work and take pride in what they have created.

They do lots of research and create big projects, but also take the time to create finished drafts of what may seem like more basic work. It is in these details that they often need just a little more when it comes to supplies.

My students will use these fine point Sharpie markers, stencils, paper trimmer and three hole punch to put those finishing touches on their work. The wood squares are to complete a wood sculpture project that we have previously started, and just need this last supply. These materials will go a long way in helping students to create final drafts of their works.

Thank you for considering donating to this project!
