My Students
"THANK YOU!" That's the the best thing a teacher can hear from a student or parent. And I have heard that phrase many times from the families at our school. Our school is a small school, serving pre-kindergarten to 5th grade students. The school continues to grow each year because our students and their families are committed to our school and want to see it thrive. They are happy to be there.
Our school's positive culture is often praised by teachers, parents, and community members alike.
Being an urban school presents unique challenges, and it is the positive behavior and attitudes of the students and their families that allow us to overcome these challenges.
The teachers at our school are committed to their students, often spending their own time and money to make things extra special, including everything from starting a soccer team to buying books as rewards. The teachers work as a team, striving to increase student achievement and to prepare our students for middle school, high school, college, and beyond.
My Project
I am requesting a variety of materials, so that my students will have options to choose from during choice time. Students will be able to practice many skills including: spelling with letter tiles and dry erase markers; counting and adding with the money file folders; writing with the journals; and problem solving with the puzzles.
The variety of materials and activities will give my students the ability to choose as well as the independence and practice they need.
My students need to have many opportunities throughout the school day to practice previously learned skills. They need to do so in ways that differ from one another. My students also need the chance to think about what skills they need to practice and how they enjoy doing that. As the teacher, I want to create choice time for my students. I just need the materials to make that possible.
