We have finally started school again Hurricane Sandy destroyed our community in Far Rockaway. Most of our students and many of our teachers lost everything. I want to do anything I can to try to improve their lives right now, even if it's more opportunities and resources in their classrooms.
Music is a skill and a passion that a child can take pride in for the rest of his or her life.
It is time for our students to experience the power and joy that music can have in their lives.
Our school is a Title I elementary school with a culturally diverse student community. Our little scholars have not had music in their lives for over two years, and we are struggling to provide them everything they deserve. They are creative and bright students who crave music and the varieties of activities it can bring with it.
My Project
My students need a printer, ink cartridges, and paper for basic supplies in our classroom. The printer will be used to print student work, worksheets, and pictures to display in the room. We have shows coming up and the printer can be used to make programs and print accessories. The ink will be used to maintain the printer throughout the school year. Lastly, the paper will be used to print on.
The printer will help make my classroom a more practical and self-sufficient place.
I will be able to complete everything in one location, and give students resources at the drop of a hat.
