Ms. Minero's classroom raised $330

3rd Grade World Travelers

My students need a political and physical world map.

Ozone Park, NY Grades 3-5

I am a 3rd grade teacher in a Title One Public School in New York City. I have a large class this year and each one of my students has a strong desire to learn. I have been able to feed off my students desire to learn and have begun to create an in-depth study of communities around the world.

During this study of the various communities from around the world, my students will learn about countries like Italy, Nigeria, Africa, China, and the Unites States. They will also understand the how the people lived, worked, and survived in these countries. As well as the troubles that they faced due to poverty and also weather.

I would love to create an environment in my classroom where the students can immerse themselves in each country. I would love for the students to be able to view these countries on a large map in order to understand their physical location when discussing the countries traits and weather conditions. Having this map will give the students a knowledge of how very different each country is and give them a realization that these countries aren't very close to us. Having this map opens new and wonderful opportunities for my students. It allows them to conduct research and analyze the physical location of the countries and be able to compare and contrast their locations with other countries from around the world.

I really hope that you have a strong desire to learn just like my students and can help us create a wonderful learning atmosphere in our classroom.
