My Students

My students are eager to learn. The students are very diverse and come from different backgrounds. Each child is unique. We are a Title I School.

As a teacher in a low-income/high poverty school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom.

Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences. We desire just the basics in our class.

My Project

The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a "home." In other words, I know exactly where everything will go. We just need your help in getting everything through our door! The paper, staplers, markers, and other supplies of the sort will be used by the students, so that they may create books. All other supplies are things that I don't have and will make my class run more efficiently.

Students will be able to simply focus on the academic material at hand, and not whether their materials are going to work or not.

Plus in this technology literate world, any interaction with updated technology such as this Galaxy Tab and headphones will increase their literacy as well as their desire to learn and use the new technology!
