My Students

My class consists of 19 students who are "wild about learning!" One of the skills that I know is very important as children progress throughout their academic years is organization. My goal is to instill that skill, along with the love of learning.

I currently have 19 students who keep me on my toes!

They are lovers of learning and grasps everything that I place before them. They are one of the sweetest bunches of students that I have had the pleasure to teach. I currently teach in a Title 1 school. Every student in our school receives free or reduced lunch. I work in a great school with great individuals. We all have a common goal of making sure all students succeed.

My Project

I am requesting chair sacks organizers for my class. Chair sacks will help promote independence within my classroom and allow students to have access to their materials. Our class consists of tables and chairs. Supplies are stored in a separate area in the class. It takes a large amount of time to get supplies to each student.

Donations to help purchase chair sacks will improve our class greatly.

Chair sacks will help with organization and independence within our classroom, along with providing easy access to materials.
