Portfolio of Student Work

Help me give my students folders to help create portfolios of their work. We also are in need of curtains for the classroom. This will help to block out the sun glare in our classroom.

My Project

We are in need of additional classroom supplies. Folders help students organize their work throughout the course of the school year in the form of portfolios. They can keep their progress organized as well as be able to document and see their academic growth.

We also believe it or not do not have blinds on the classroom windows.

As a result students have a hard time seeing the smartboard due to a reflection of the sun. Imagine how this disrupts teaching and learning? Students in our community are already faced with many obstacles. Donors, it is the little things that count and that go a long way!
