My Students

First, my students are the kindest and caring students, they have always offered to help others, even though most of them do not come from much themselves. My students are attending an urban high school and travel as near as five minutes and as far as an hour to attend. My population of students is diverse. I teach the 10th-grade global (world history) course as well as the advance placement United States history course. My students' abilities range from a third-grade reading level to a college reading level. My students sometimes are not able to afford the basic school supplies and I am always spending money out of my own pocket to provide those for them. With the active virus and the movement to online learning, I really need your help!

My Project

These materials will make for a smooth transition into the school year and help me to keep more money in my pocket. The stamps will help make grading easier for students to get work back easier and the computer paper will help with our worksheets needed because not all my students have access to technology at home. Also, students are always asked to have one spiral notebook that is dedicated to my history class so that they can complete their interactive notebooks, this last year I purchased 30 notebooks for students who could not afford to buy one, therefore, I wanted to use them for that purpose. Thank you for your thoughts and cares to help this happen.
