My Students

My students love learning in different ways. My classroom is full of eager learners who have many different learning styles. I have many students who are English language learners. Many of my students are visual and tactile learners. My students love learning new things and creating things to show what they learned. They like to share what they have learned with other classes in our school. Science and social studies are the subjects that my students love the most.

My students also love using technology to increase their learning and to share what they learned.

My students continue to amaze me every day with their knowledge and love for learning.

My Project

In order to be successful in school, there are a few basic supplies that are needed. In my school, my students go through pencils and dry erase markers so quickly. We use pencils for everything that we do. We need erasers to help us correct our work. We use dry erase markers on our individual white boards. I use them for quick assessments and check-ins. My students love to use dry erase markers but they use up the markers very quickly.

I don't want my students to worry that they will not have a marker or pencil in order for them to complete their work.

The post-it notes are used for jotting notes in their books about what they are reading or how their characters are feeling. We need good paper towels for our classroom that can handle our big messes from art projects, breakfast, and our water bottles. These supplies will ensure that my students have the tools that they need so that they can focus on learning and being the best students that they can be.
