My Students

Today's classrooms have certainly changed in the past year, we went from in-person school to remote to hybrid learning. I want my students to come back in the fall to the normal, where we are hands-on, learning in groups, with the laughing and learning.

My students love to learn hands-on, they are well-behaved, and love to play games that promote learning.

They attend a school that has a very diverse population, many of these students are free and reduced lunch children. Most of my students come from single-parent homes, in which the parents work 2nd and 3rd shifts.

My Project

Last year, was for sure the most difficult year of teaching. We prepared things for at-home learning and tried to get all the resources the students would need to be successful learners at home. This year, however, we are transitioning to what we considered to be the normal start of the school year.

I want my students to not worry about the necessary supplies to make their year successful.

These items will allow my students and families to not worry about school supplies, I want my students to just worry about coming in and getting right to the learning and fun of a new year. Please help my students receive crayons, pencils, dry erase markers, and glue sticks to help make the year a good start.
