My Project

In today’s educational landscape, fostering both academic and social-emotional growth among students is essential. My project aims to enhance student learning by providing essential supplies, including whiteboard markers and grids, that promote collaborative learning experiences. These tools will not only support academic engagement but also cultivate vital social skills and emotional intelligence among my students.

With the support of this project, my students will experience a transformative learning environment that prioritizes collaboration and active engagement.

The use of whiteboard markers and grids will empower them to take ownership of their learning, develop essential social skills, and foster a positive classroom culture. Other supplies like highlighters and calculators will help differentiate instruction and provide accommodations in a special education classroom. By investing in these supplies, donors will directly contribute to the academic success and emotional well-being of my students.
