My Students

Kindergrtners love to write. Remember when you were in school learning to write on chalkboards with dusty chalk and erasers? Remember sneezing every time someone banged the eraser on the board? With dry erase markers and boards students can learn how to write without sneezing.

My students are from low income families living in transition centers.

My students' families do the best they can to bring the supplies needed for their children at the beginning of the year and purchase the uniforms required by the school, but asking for money for additional supplies is a little out of their price range. Despite everything my students are the most warm hearted kids I have taught in a long time. These students are respectful and never give up. They work hard everyday learning how to write their letters and learn new words. They wear their uniforms everyday and never complain about doing so. Most of my students can write their names and when a student learns how to write something new we celebrate it. Everything is new to them and the little things make them happy.

My Project

These resources will change my students lives by providing them with much needed writing materials. We write everyday. By using dry erase boards we can save the paper in our notebooks for when we are able to write stories. These dry erase boards will be used daily to practice writing letters and words. We will also use the boards to solve math problems. The boards have lines which will teach students how to write straight.

This project is so important for my students' learning.

It will help them learn to write new letters and words. It will also aid my students when solving math problems. They will use these board on a daily basis in centers and in small group learning.
