My Students

My students are a fabulous group of students that deserve nothing but the best. They are hardworking and continue to show grit and the love of learning.

We have been one of the districts that has continued with school instruction rather than online.

Sometimes my students get anxious and need a way to release their anxiety.

My Project

With the way the year is going and continues to go, my students are finding themselves needing back-up supplies that are going to help us throughout the rest of the year.

As families continue to struggle and students continue to struggle, I want to provide some fresh supplies to make it through the second part of the year.

My students need new folders and pens to replace the ones from the beginning of the year.

I also want to focus on our social studies curriculum and need some materials to enhance my instruction. So I would love some new curriculum resources such as Greek and Roman resource book, Hands on World History, and World Conflict reading materials.

I have also found that many students are anxious and overwhelmed during these difficult times. I want to provide each student with a Bouncy Band to go on their desks to help them fidget without distracting others. This will alleviate nervous energy and allow them to concentrate on their school work.

Thank you for considering this project. It will benefit the needs of the students in my class.
