My students need a lot of love, care and support from teachers. Our school is in a poverty stricken area, where many students do not have necessary supplies or tools they need to succeed. Building a warm, safe, inviting classroom community and environment is so important for my students.
My students are kind, caring, and ready to learn.
They are continuing to learn how to best communicate with friends and prevent bullying in our classroom. Classroom community is still something we are continuing to build throughout the year, not just in our class, but school-wide. We also strive to provide differentiated, culturally-responsive instruction, and need more resources to do that.
I hope to receive support from DonorsChoose in order to help my students get necessary supplies, create a sense of community, safety and comfort in my classroom, as well as help my students create long lasting memories to help them connect positively to school. I appreciate your support in helping my students get what they need, learn, and grow.
My Project
This year, my class is lucky enough to receive a donation of iPads! We each have our own individual iPad in the classroom to support our learning in all subjects. We will also be completing differentiated assignments and projects on the iPads as a part of our new push for Project Based Learning (PBL) in the classroom. Unfortunately, we were not be provided with headphones for the iPads, making it difficult for students to be on iPads during whole group and small group time, as the noise will be very distracting for the class. With these headphones, we will be able to complete some amazing projects!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
