My Students

Although poverty has a significant impact on my scholars' education and their success, they always strive to do their best to beat the odds. For example, when the pandemic started in March, we went virtual. Virtual learning was new to all my scholars, but that didn't stop them from learning. My scholars were logged on daily and ready to work.

My Project

These basic supplies will provide my parents with breathing room at the beginning of the year. By providing this supplies for my students, this will allow parents to purchase other necessary items for my scholars.

The folders will be utilized in two ways, for students to independently track their data, and also for parents and teachers to communicate issues concerning students' conduct and important school notices.

The pencils, pens, glue sticks, and erasers are basic supplies that my scholars will use daily to complete their assignments.

The highlighters and Post-it notes will be implemented in my class to teach strategies when dissecting a reading passage for better comprehension.
