My Students

I am looking forward to meeting my new students very soon. I will have 18 beautiful and bright faces joining me in 3rd grade this year. My school is Title I and many of our students are Multiple Language Learners.

I think my students will be looking forward to a more normal school year and I hope that these supplies can help me give that to them!

My Project

These items will be used to improve our classroom in so many different ways, like staying organized, building autonomy, increasing engagement, and fostering creativity.

Since our last project was funded, I have noticed that my students are more engaged in their learning when they are able to choose a seating option that helps them learn best!

The seating choices will help continue to give my students choice during independent learning times!

By giving to this project, you will help give our classroom what we need to be more creative and focused with our learning!
