My Project
I have been teaching fourth grade for many years, and in less than a month before school finishes, the principal asked me to transfer to fifth grade. His reasons were very positive and made me feel proud of my accomplishments. He explained that my State test scores in fourth grade has always been high, and he would like me to help the next grade level up on their scores as well. I felt proud, but at the same time sad that I had to leave a grade level that I have grown so comfortable with for many years. I have also grown so close to my colleagues in that grade level, so essentially I will be starting all over in every aspect.
Being that I was told that I am starting a new grade level so late, it is past the school's deadline to turn in a PO for materials needed for the classroom which means I would need to purchase materials on my own if needed.
I would really like to work on writing as one of my main goals this year, and I noticed that my fourth graders had a lot of problems with their punctuation marks. I thought a poster would be great for them to be able to refer to when needed.
I would also like them to be able to create art work for different occasions, like Halloween, Christmas, etc. therefore I would need paint to help with this. I do have construction paper and paint brushes but no paint
I would like the students to enter a decorated class with supplies needed for them on the first day of school so I am hoping Donors Choose could help me with this. They would greatly appreciate this!
