My Students

My students are sharp, talented, hardworking, and motivated to work. They come from diverse backgrounds and belong to one of the low-income neighborhoods in our country.

To provide and implement effective teaching strategies and constant support through differentiation, I do need some teaching supplies that the school is unable to provide.

We have been teaching online since October and now are getting ready to head back to the in-person classrooms.

This is my first year teaching at Norfork Public school.

I was allowed to get in the building and see my class in September. It is a beautiful spacious class with empty shelves, no rug, no teaching tools.

It's nothing compared with the school I have taught in before.

The building has been donated and the school doesn't have the ability to support all of its teachers financially. I strongly believe in inequality. I know how having access to the right educational tools can make a difference in students' understanding of any subject.

I need a small library with books for my low and high groups.

I need math, reading, and writing manipulatives for my centers to teach my students through hands-on experiences and visual activities.

My Project

My students eat lunch at 11:15. Our dismissal is scheduled for 4:15. By 2:00 o'clock everyone is hungry and they usually ask for a snack, especially on rainy days when we spend our break in the classroom.

Because I teach in a low-income area, I have provided my students with small-sized masks, afternoon snacks, and tissue boxes myself since they weren't provided by either the school or parents.

I spend a fortune on water bottles, snacks, and tissue boxes every week.

It was only last week when one of my colleagues told me that I could ask for help here on Donors Choose and get some support from you. This is my first time asking for these supplies that we really need on daily basis.
