I have fallen in love with my students' perseverance and bright spirits! Despite the daily challenges my students face, they come to school with smiles on their faces ready to tackle whatever is thrown at them. I teach at a Title I school where 100% of our students qualify for free breakfast and lunch. Many students in my school receive food kits for the weekends and are placed in the Angel Tree program each year at Christmas. Despite living in a perpetual cycle of poverty, their spirits remain unbreakable.
It's no secret that children from backgrounds such as this are underdogs from the very beginning.
That is why they need a champion - someone who believes in them enough to give them a chance at success. This project will open the door to uncharted territory for my students and allow them to reach a level of success they never knew existed.
My Project
Our classroom is anything but basic! However, we could use a few basic classroom supplies to help organize and enhance our environment.
Our days are filled with love, laughter, and learning.
All we need now is to add the basics! The supplies in this project - such as the stapler, 3-hole punch, card stock, and laminating sheets - will help prepare and organize lesson materials that are high in quality so lessons can run more smoothly. The incentive charts will allow my students to see their academic progress as they track their online achievements using stickers to chart their successes. The dry erase markers and board cleaner will help us keep our environment neat, clean, and appealing. The magnetic clips and the packing tape will allow me to hang and show off the amazing student work my class creates. The poster boards and sharpies will allow my students to complete engaging classroom projects. The privacy boards will help my students focus during working time by eliminating surrounding distractions. Help us put the basic into our our extraordinary classroom!
