My Project

My students come to school daily ready to learn even though they are being asked to complete tasks at grade level knowing they are 3 or more grade levels behind on reading and other major skills. Nevertheless, they come to school ready to overcome any obstacle society throws at them, even on an empty stomach on occasion.

Snacks and prize toys can be used to motivate students further to take ownership and pride in their learning.

My students deserve to be celebrated with the things they enjoy, like Takis and skateboard fidget toys. These items will help foster a positive learning environment where students' likes are being heard and appreciated.
