The amazing students at my school come from high poverty homes. We are a large school with a lot of grade-level integration. Our students are caring and try their best despite the odds stacked against them. My U.S. History classroom has 4 classes of about 30 students, but our population is very transient, so this number is most likely going to change. Many of my students are English language learners.
All of our students receive free lunch.
These 7th graders are creative, silly, and love to try new things. However, many of my students are struggling readers which can cause problems for them in history. Because of these deficits, I am always looking for new, innovative ways to help my students grow and succeed!
My Project
In order to to start the school year off on the right foot, my classroom needs to be stocked with the right supplies. In my U.S. History class, we will be using interactive notebooks that the students will create. This method is effective by engaging the students and holding them responsible for their learning. Interactive notebooks are also proven to help student learning English as a second language.
Interactive notebooks are great visual tools for learning and studying.
However, they require a lot of consumable supplies such as glue, color pencils, and highlighters. With over 100 students that come through my classroom each day, these supplies don't last very long. With your help, we can start the year off right with the supplies we need.
