My Project

The 2025-2026 school year is coming to an end and we've made amazing progress learning Math and English with last year's classroom supply haul. Unfortunately our consumable materials like pencils, erasers, pens, paper, sticky notes, markers, and folders need a restock. I share these materials daily with students so they can successful in all classes.

I teach newcomer multilingual students and having a well stocked classroom with materials ready to share promotes an learning environment that welcomes everyone.

I am also continuing to focus on organization by requesting marker holders, file folders, binder clips, and and over the door organizers. I teach in multiple classroom so I need to be organized for the day in several places. The plastic file folders will help me organize my daily copies and I hope to use the paper folders, binders, and over the door organizer to keep my students organized. I want students to easily access the papers that they need in the classroom.

I am also requesting more tactile text analysis activities because my students benefit from direct and explicit teaching. These ELA activity boxes provide support at multiple levels. The more successful as student feels the more likely they are to come to school and graduate.
