My Students

My students are diverse. They come from many different backgrounds. This neighborhood has many new immigrants. Our students vary from regular education kids to mainstream kids as well as 12:1 kids.

Our school's motto is "Committed to Excellence." We strive to give our students the best resources we can.

Many of them need hands-on materials and manipulatives so that they can "see" what is happening. Most days we break up into small groups to do mini-lessons to review or strengthen concepts.

Our goal is to try our best to help the kids meet their goals!

My Project

Starting the new year with some basic classroom supplies is important.

Every child should have the opportunity for the best start to their school year.

These materials will help my students start their new school year with a smile, as well as, having the basic materials for a clean environment, whether if it is a wet wipe or a Kleenex tissue for the noses. These materials will provide my students with new pencils on their first day of school. They can use the pencil boxes to keep their desks organized! These materials will help my students to focus on their work instead of worrying about borrowing a pencil or an eraser. Help my students to do their best!
