My Students

My students come from a very low-income/high needs environment. The school is a Title I school in Philadelphia where 100% of our students are eligible for free meals. Many of my students are performing well below grade level.

I am looking to make learning science and math fun and interactive because I believe all students have the right to learn and succeed.

In order to make sure students have the ability to learn, they just need the resources to learn.

My Project

In my classroom, students learn through a combination of group, whole class, and individual work. Students will use notebooks, pencils, and folders on a daily basis in both science and math classrooms. Students will use whiteboards on a regular basis in both group work and individual work.

Students will gain more confidence in their abilities, increase their knowledge, and increase their interest in both science and math.

Students will learn to be scientists through the use of interactive notebooks and hand-on labs. Students will leave my classroom prepared for Algebra.

My students will have all the supplies they need to be successful in the classroom and to help them achieve their goals. Thank you for donating!
