My Students
I have approximately 140 8th grade language arts students. These students come from various socioeconomic backgrounds, and many receive the free and reduced-price lunch program. Many are unable to bring the school supplies that we need in the classroom daily.
I want to provide my students with the best classroom experience that I can.
Having the necessary supplies in my classroom will help make each day a positive experience for my students. Having supplies readily available in class gives the students one less thing to worry about.
My Project
Getting middle school students to read is a tough job. I find that giving them fun and creative projects to complete over their books helps them become more engaged. Letting them be creative gives them more buy-in in the work that I am asking them to do.
My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive of their peers when they are given an artistic outlet for their ELA work.
Having materials to provide my students with creative and fun book projects allows students to put more effort into an otherwise boring task. Being able to have the supplies readily available takes the stress off of everyone.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
