My students come from diverse backgrounds. Our school often has the greatest ethnic diversity of all the schools in the state. The majority of them receive free or reduced-price lunch. Our school encourages project-based learning, especially those activities that promote the development of 21st-century skills.
Like most kids, my students thrive in a learning environment in which they are actively engaged and challenged.
Our school encourages technology-based learning which typically prepares students for high demand professions but also has a side effect of increased screen and seat time. I like incorporating technology activities but also want to keep my classes physically active and provide supportive learning environments.
My Project
My students need basic classroom supplies to help them complete classroom activities. In our science class, we learn using interactive notebooks and show our learning by drawing diagrams and models.
My students will be more successful in learning if they have their own set of supplies.
Currently, some students have to wait for a pair of scissors to free up so that they can continue their learning activities.
These basic supply requests of pencil sharpeners, scissors, and pens can have a real impact on student success. Please help my students have the materials they need so that they can use their class time mastering science content.
