My Students

In this class, we build a community around what we have in common and our shared experiences.

Curious, enthusiastic, and creative; my students are eager to immerse themselves in any kind of challenge.

Many students in my classroom come in saying they have difficulty completing practice assignments at home because of lack of supplies and resources.

My Project

With improvements such as cleanliness and organization, children will feel safe in their classroom and learn to respect their space. My kids come from a working-class environment in a large, urban area. After 2020, students became disengaged from physical learning and got used to a home environment. I want my classroom to feel like home. I want to be the catalyst to get children excited about school and learning. With less sharing of supplies, social and academic learning can prosper. Please consider donating to help me fulfill my dreams as a first-year teacher!
