My Project

These basic school supplies with help my students take the first step towards success. Our school is an equity focused school. We specifically look to provide an equitable environment for the students.

As they say, "For every minute spent organizing, an hour is earned".

My project will provide supplies for students to organize their learning. The dividers, sheet protectors and sticky notes help them prioritize what work they need to finish first and what work they need to correct to learn. For some of my students, this is their first year of Middle School and their first time needing to organize their own work in order to keep up with notes, use a calendar, make themselves notes and really take responsibility for their grades. The students host the parent conferences. The dividers, sheet protectors and sticky notes help them prioritize what work they will share with parents to show their growth, where they need to improve and their successes.
