My students need personal care products and cleaning supplies to take care of basic care needs to stay healthy and be able to focus on learning and living a happy life.
This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
Our classroom is a place of community, shared expression, collaboration, mindful practices, and new learning experiences. A lot of things happen in here beyond reading and writing, and we like it this way! My students enjoy the vibrant space, a place where we try new things and support everyone.
The students come from all parts of our city and bring with them the experiences of their families, homes, neighborhoods, and the greater community.
Sometimes, these things enhance our learning and make it a richer experience for everyone. Other times this brings chaos and conflict. Whatever the students come with, we work together to be a classroom community of learners moving forward together to achieve success.
My Project
The students who attend my high-poverty school face daily challenges in meeting their basic needs. It is my hope that access to the items in this project will help meet the needs of students so that they are able to better engage in their education.
This project supports students by providing everyday supplies to support their wellness - supplies that most of us take for granted.
The items in this project are all things that students ask for or use on a regular basis. Items such as deodorant and feminine hygiene products are requested on a regular basis. Hand sanitizer, tissues, paper towels, and room fresheners are part of making our classroom a clean, healthy, and welcoming place for students.
