My Students

The students in the 3rd grade are all unique. Many of the students come from low-income homes. Many students receive free lunch and free breakfasts each day.

All of the students are excited to enter the classroom each day because I provide great, unique, and individualized learning opportunities in my classroom .

They have their own personalities and really want to thrive throughout the school year. Sometimes the students must take assessments to make sure they are retaining the material that I have taught them throughout the lessons and in small group instruction in reading, math, and writing. For this reason the students need privacy! They also need individual space to minimize distractions so they may do their best to show their stuff!

Many students in the grade having specific learning needs. This will allow the students to use programs that are fitted directly to their needs. The students can work in solitude without distractions. The students are in the general education setting. There are students have have specific learning needs. The class size grows each day with enrollment always happening.

My Project

These materials would make the classroom a better and quiet environment during testing. The folders would allow the students have the privacy to do their best work and also the storage would allow them to be independent and get one when they need it. The students need to have the opportunity to work independently and work in a quiet place without distraction. These folders can do that for them.

The students could use them at their seats or in any area of the room.

This will allow the students to demonstrate in a quiet space what they know and what I still need to teach them.
