My Students

I teach at a Title I elementary school. My students are diverse, enthusiastic, and brilliant! This year I get to work with 22 kindergarten students who all come from very different places in the world.

My students come from a wide variety of cultures and languages.

We have over 41 languages spoken in our school! I teach many English Language Learners. In fact, half my class is learning English as a second language. My goal is to make reading a pleasurable experience. I want my students to look at books and see a window into another world. I also want them to see books as a mirror, a picture of what it is like in the world they come from and live in.

My Project

These Lakeshore Learning kits will allow my students to use literacy and math manipulatives in a meaningful way from home!

Playing with letters and numbers is how students learn!

I can't afford to give my students these kinds of manipulatives to use at home. By giving them the Lakeshore Learning Kits I can ask students to build words, add and subtract numbers, write stories, and collaborate so that learning is meaningful because they know we are playing! If a child is playing, they are learning, which is what we want for all of them!
