My Students

My students have difficulties coming to school prepared on a daily basis. Any little noise can cause distraction and make them lose focus. They all come from very different backgrounds, and a lot of them struggle for basic necessities at home.

Our school is a high poverty school.

My students are learning in a variety of ways! My students ask me specifically for ways to help them focus better. They want to learn and do well. My students need snacks to help them stay focused. They also need more construction paper to help in motor tasks during writing class.

My Project

My students are not able to come to school with snacks on a daily basis. Their families cannot afford it and therefore it can be a struggle to get through the day. Since COVID, we are on a modified day and the students do not eat lunch till the last part of the day. That means they are doing a lot of work between meals. The construction paper will be used for the many different motor skills projects I do in my classroom. Last month the students made penguins and this month they are going to make owls.

The snacks will be utilized to help fuel my students to make it through the day.

The paper will be used for motor skills related projects.
