My Project

Please help to provide my students with these school supplies that will help to support student learning. These items will make a difference in my students' learning because these supplies will provide hands-on opportunities for my students to gain an understanding of the concepts that will be taught in all core content areas. For example, they will be able to use the paper to understand the cross-cutting concept of patterns while learning about math, science, and art. They will be able to use the sewing needles and thread to create their own social studies artifacts that represent their identity, much like the indigenous people did when they created the tools and textiles that were used in their daily lives.

Goals will be for my students to have the ability to express their creativity in computer science, math, science and language arts through projects that demonstrate real-world applications.

My students are special because they are enthusiastic learners who get excited about learning when they are able to take agency and apply their knowledge and skills to activities that are meaningful and relevant in a personal and relevant way.
