My Students

My upper elementary school students are of great diversity. The majority come from a low income, urban area with a large percentage of special needs students. Each year, 90% of my students qualify for free or reduced price lunch. My students have so much going on in their lives that I don't want the ability to purchase the basic school supplies to be an additional hurdle for them.

As the 2020-2021 school year continues to extend its remote learning, currently scheduled to return on March 1, 2021, I am continuing to collect supplies that my 5th graders need.

Lastly, my students are bright, funny, social, and energetic children! My goal is to continue to instill a love of lifelong learning in them despite these trying times.

My Project

The materials I am requesting, such as the dry erase strips, dry erase boards, composition notebooks, and writing folders will be added to my students' at-home materials. The other materials, such as flashcards, volume activities, and fraction bars will be utilized by me while teaching remotely so that students will have visual models.

Since I work in a low-income area where students do not have access to hands-on learning, the activities I am requesting will greatly help close the gap while teaching virtually.

The items will remain in my classroom for years to come!
