Grandview Elementary is a small, rural school located in Eastern Indiana. Our school population is at 85% free or reduced-price lunch rate, with many of our students being offered a free breakfast and meals for the weekend. Every year i try to provide an environment for my students that is engaging and feels like a place they can be safe. Many students have a rough home life. When they come into my classroom, I want them to leave that stress behind. Every student deserves a classroom where they enjoy learning and engaging with others. There are many things that make a classroom engaging and inviting to all students. An organized classroom leads to higher engagement and better learning. When a student can focus on the task and not the mess, you see the best results. That is why I am trying to get donations for items in my classroom to make it the best learning environment it can be. We currently have books in our classroom library that are outdated and falling apart. When a student picks up a book and pages fall out, they don't want to read it. We will use these books during our reading workshop to engage students in group discussions. These books will help foster their love of reading by being new, updated and at their interest level. Throughout the year we teach lessons daily and use examples to enhance their understanding. We use printed images in articles, anchor charts, and many more examples to accomplish our goal. We currently have black and white printers. I would like to have this project funded so that I can get a color printer for enhancing student lessons and projects. Many time when we print pictures in greyscale, you cannot see the image clearly. Thank you!
