My Students

Each day, second graders depend on me to teach them how to read, write, and develop critical thinking skills that will be the foundation of their education. These students come from a variety of diverse backgrounds. Their families qualify for free lunch and often do not have the means to provide quality literature, basic school supplies, and other educational tools at home. So, I feel it is my role to provide them with rich learning experiences on a day to day basis.

Due to their backgrounds and limitations in resources at home, my students often enter elementary school significantly behind their more affluent peers but all of them are eager to learn.

My Project

In approximately one month, second graders will finally have the chance to come to school in person! This will likely be on a volunteer basis, with the option of continued virtual learning. In order to make my classroom as safe as possible, I am requesting a medical grade air HEPA air filter to purify the airspace, replacement air filters, and disinfecting wipes to clean the numerous surfaces in the classroom.

My hope is that parents will have more peace of mind knowing that these tools are in place to protect students and will thus be more willing to send students back to school.

Furthermore, these items will be great additions to our classroom even after COVID as flu and other colds will continue to persist with young students. The air filter will help keep students healthier, prevent the spread of illness, and ultimately keep students in school where they can learn.
