Folders Up?

My students need privacy when taking a test and sometimes putting their folders up is just not enough. That is why I am asking for some privacy boards. They also need clear adhesive rolls, name tags, rewards stickers and markers.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

The most common thing to say when taking a test is "folders up" but we all know the problems that go along with that. Folders are falling, papers are falling down, and arranging them becomes more of a distraction.

My first grade bilingual class is ready to get the year started.

My class of seventeen students are ready to work together and begin learning, but sitting so close together in a small area can lack some privacy. These students are both English and Spanish speakers who are looking forward to reading and writing this year!

My Project

Having privacy partition boards as well as name tags will give students a sense of self. Students will be able to work independently without being interrupted. They will have the privacy needed when taking a test. Most of all they will be able to focus when taking a test and avoid distractions.

Your donations will increase focus as well as minimize distractions during class.

Students will be able to stay on task and keep their eyes on their own paper instead of worrying what others are doing, a common thing with first graders.
