My Students

I have a very resilient group of students who have suffered through the Camp Fire last year. They are inquisitive and love to learn.

Even through tragedy, they wanted to keep learning and continue their previous school year.

I hope I can continue their passion for education and keep that gumption for learning with engaging lessons and fun classroom activities.

This group of children is smart and loving and deserve the best possible education they can get. They are a great group of kids that are kind and helpful.

My Project

My students are from Paradise, California, who lost everything in the Camp Fire. I was hired as a first-year teacher to teach the Fourth-Grade class and I have very little supplies and a Royal Reading & Writing Center would help out a lot in my classroom.

The easel would benefit our students because we currently only have a few tables, a TV monitor, and a whiteboard.

I would be able to use the easel for many different aspects in the classroom like calendar, whole group lessons, and storage for other teaching supplies. As a new teacher, it is hard to know what I need in my classroom, but I do know that an easel would greatly benefit the students and ease the strain of being a new teacher.
