My Project

My co-teacher and I work with students in grades 5-8. They are all tier 3 students in a title 1 school. Middle school is already a struggle and we just want to make sure that their learning experience fulfils their academic needs in a small group setting.

The supplies that we are asking for will help our students get excited to want to learn with their middle school peers.

Our reward system encourages our students to focus on the task at hand and promotes appropriate behavior. The headphones we have are falling apart and they are sharing them. We want our students to each have their own when working on their intervention software.

The label maker will ensure that each student has his/her headphone each time they come to class. The printer will allow us to print out colored resources and activities to engage our students. The console table will provide storage where there is very limited space. We currently do not have a fridge nearby and we are asking for a lunchbox to ensure the lunches stay cool.

As teachers, we love what we do and we want our students to love what they are learning. Reading is so important and with these items that we are asking for, the students will become successful readers.
