My Students
William Butler Yates once said, "Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire." Each day my students come to school from a variety of difficult home lives to have this educational fire lit inside of them. My students attend a Title I school in South Carolina that enrolls students with a wide range of ability levels, different socioeconomic backgrounds, and many even have difficult home lives.
For the most part, the world of my students is a simple one that lacks resources and opportunities for learning.
Even something as simple as having reliable resources can make a difference in their lives. I believe in providing my students with the highest quality education I can offer them and hope that my efforts will truly benefit these students.
My school is an Arts in Basic Curriculum school, which means we focus on the integration of music, visual, and performing arts with our everyday lessons. For students who do not come from much, this integration is a way to provide them experiences and opportunities of which many of them may never get otherwise.
My Project
My students have spent the past few months learning to love reading, now it is time for a third-grade chapter book challenge. I would like to provide my students with some new chapter books to put in our classroom library to keep them excited about reading and challenge them to try new books.
Third grade is an important turning point for students' reading and having interesting chapter books will keep them motivated to keep going.
Merlin's Missions, Dory Fantastamagory, and the Disgusting Critters series are fun books that my students would enjoy reading. Please consider donating to my project, Chapter Book Challenge.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
