My Students

We are a class of motivated students with a focus and passion to learn and create. My hope is that I can guide my students and continue developing their love of art projects and school. Our resources are limited, and we need your help. This is a second-grade class that is located in New York City.

Nearly all students are from low-income households and have extremely limited resources.

Our elementary school has grades K-5 and houses over 1,000 students. Basic materials have become difficult to acquire for our Title I school. The students are wonderful and it is a pleasure being their teacher year after year. I believe that they would benefit greatly from this magazine.

My Project

The focus for the 2017-2018 school year will be conversations about reading. I can think of nothing greater than reading an inspirational magazine article and just bursting at the idea of talking about it with someone who has also read it. I am requesting twenty-five subscriptions to the Scholastic News magazine. This magazine will inspire students to read, think, debate, share ideas, generate theories, and develop social skills through conversation. I can teach them all of these skills, but I can't do it without your generous support. Children's magazines are a key motivator for students. The articles and stories in children's magazines are relatively short and can be read somewhat quickly. In addition, a magazine's multiple features can expose a child to a wide variety of subjects and introduce them to new issues and ideas. Your donation will make it possible for these students to read nonfiction articles and become aware of current events.
