My students are creative, thoughtful and have the desire to learn. They absolutely love hands-on activities, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! By donating to our project, you will ultimately help to increase my students’ academic achievement. The school supplies I am requesting such as an easel pads, markers, and color pencils, will be tools students need to succeed. During this project students will have the opportunity to be critical thinkers and analyze one of their complex readings. As a small group the students will chart down their ideas, to demonstrate their understanding of the text. Later the students will share their charts with their peers. This ongoing project will provide students ample opportunities to chart down their ideas when reading other complex stories. This project will impact my students' education and lead them to be critical thinkers and lifelong learners.
