My Students

My first grade students are happy, resilient and full of life! They love to learn and help each other. They are patient and kind to our special classmates who struggle with understanding how to behave in school. They work hard and play hard, and are so forgiving and full of love!

My young students crave interesting activities that will fuel their creativity and love of school and learning.

They need the materials and opportunities to use their imaginations more; to create exciting learning adventures to share with each other at school, therefore making school even more fun as they grow their minds in various ways. I want the best for them, because they work hard to give me their best!

My Project

My students love to learn and grow! The materials for my project will bring new life to my classroom! My struggling readers will love the early readers on their own level so they can gain confidence in their reading skills. All will benefit during math lessons to have new dry erase markers that are not dried out the next day, as well as the floor cushions for flexible seating which allows the few who need an alternative to sitting at a desk in order to do their best learning.

First grade students love to create and learn through STEM activities, math games, and literacy activities that stretch their minds in ways that pencil and paper learning cannot do.

These games and activities will help them enjoy school more and want to learn even more, which encourages happier, healthier children, not just academically, but emotionally and socially as well.

Some of our learning is done on iPads with headphones. Each school day, we deal with a few sets of headphones that do not work, and we do our best with them! New headphones will enhance the online literacy and math programs we use, and reduce the amount of time wasted in figuring out what is wrong. Thank you so much for considering a donation to my project and to tomorrow's leaders who happen to be in first grade this year!
