The help and assistance I’m requesting will help foster curious and creative learners. I’m a new first year teacher, teaching 1st grade at a school where a number of my kids don't know when they will get their next meal, or unfortunately even where they will sleep that night. But when they come to school, they know they are safe, loved, and can rely on any teacher to give them a snack when they are hungry. The school I work at was created to give homeless children a fair and just education and we aim to accomplish these goals. Nearly all of the youths attending this school are at risk of staying illiterate. This is why the phonics learning center along with the rare Alonso will help. The teach and store cart is to maximize learning around the classroom. The write and wipe boards help engage the students. The word family books also promote reading.A listening center can encourage these students, who are below their grade level reading, to read books above their reading level and understand them. Reading is a big part of this. My students love to hear stories and are in the process of learning to read. Resources are very limited where I teach, but with the help and support of kind people, I know my students are going to continue on their path to become the most amazing contributors to the community and world around them! The materials I am requesting will help support the development of literacy in my students who face not only academic challenges but homelessness everyday.
