My Students

Have you ever looked at a map with a specific place in mind? When trying to point this place out did you horrifically fail? My students fail also, and this is the problem!

My students are my life!

There little faces are the reason I wake up in the morning. They are all bright and brilliant students. Each of them has their own interest in the world. It is impossible for me to teach a lesson with out them attacking me with wonderful questions. They attend a title one school, that brings together unfortunate kids into a safe and fun learning environment. It is a school that is culturally diverse in many ways. Which is very good when raising our future worlds leaders.

My Project

With the desk size maps and the globes my students will have no problem learning to explore the geography of our Earth. They will be able to locate anything their little minds want when ever they want to. They won't have anymore trouble pointing out anything they brainstorm. It will also make teaching very easy, I won't have to wait for them to turn to the maps in the textbooks. Also this will give them a hands on experience in every lesson. Which will surely help them learn more. That is why we need your help.

You can make a difference on these students.

The maps on the desks and the globes would be very beneficial and essential to the students. No longer would students have to waste valuable learning time by flipping through textbooks . Instead students would be able to clearly see and identify objects on the map in close range. Students wouldn't have to strain their eyes anymore to see objects on the map in the front of the class when the map would be right in front of their eyes. Help our future!
