My Students

The students at our school are bright, talented individuals with incredible futures awaiting them. They have a drive to search for deeper meaning, critically think, and connect their learning to real life. They can succeed at anything they put their mind to. With only a little help from you to provide supplies to these amazing kiddos, my students will be able to reach, and surpass, their educational and personal goals.

My Project

With the loss of learning from the COVID pandemic and virtual learning, my students are in need of a class set of headphones and mice to aid in station work. Small group work is immensely successful, and will help students get back on, and stay on track for 3rd grade level learning. While I work with small groups, other students will need to be independently practicing work at stations. Many of them will need to listen to material, either to aid in comprehension by their own choice, or as part of their ELL or IEP requirements. In addition to headphones, a class set of computer mice would help students interact with technology in a more natural and integrated way.
