My Project

I teach a classroom full of amazing and curious second graders in Staten Island, New York. My school is a Title I school, with 80% of our students receiving free or reduced-price lunches. My students come from various backgrounds with very diverse needs. The majority of my students are English Language Learners, where English is their second language.

My students love art and crafts.

My students will be able to make their new water bottle their own by decorating them with stickers.

Please help my students stay hydrated and healthy. They will also reduce plastic waste with these personalized reusable water bottles! Not only will my students have easy access to their own water in the classroom, but they will also be able to take them outside during recess as well.
