I teach a classroom of 28 wonderful 1st grade students at a school with a very diverse population. Unfortunately, it is often difficult to provide all the necessary supplies my students need in order to succeed. Despite the lack of supplies and sometimes difficult situations, my students are very enthusiastic and hardworking learners! They deserve to have a fighting chance and I want to provide them with the materials and opportunities to do so.
