My Students

Our district is leaning towards a blended learning environment. With that in mind, many students are without required materials, such as mask, pencils, headphones, etc. This project will assist many of my students by providing them with essential materials to be successful inside and outside of the classroom. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, many safety measures needs to be taken. Providing mask and headphones will be a great additional safety measure to provide to my students while learning.

My Project

During such uncertain times, I believe education will be a safe haven for my students. Providing these materials will be essential in their learning moving forward. Starting in August, our schools will be blended (online and in-class). Therefore, these materials are essential.

Rainbow Park Elementary is a low socioeconomic community with limited resources.

Many students lack required materials that are essential for success. While providing instruction in-class, masks will be required daily. Providing my students with reusable (personal) masks will eliminate a daily struggle with materials.

While at home, the headphones will help my students focus while we're on Zoom lessons. This will help maintain their attention, heighten his/her understanding and increase their chance of being successful.
