My students need printer ink to have new education games made for them!
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Newton's classroom raised $321
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
My students live in a city where crime rates are high and there is a 98% poverty rate. My students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences that any other student is able to have.
Although I may not be able to control their home lives, I can certainly control their experience during the school day.
By doing this in a creative and positive way, I am hopeful to inspire even our earliest learners to continue on a path of academic excellence.
My students, although only 3 and 4 years old, are hard workers, and they deserve to come to school and feel safe and loved, and I'm happy to be the one who is able to give them that.
My Project
Printer ink is very important to our classroom because that's how the children get their homemade education games made by the teachers. They have specific centers that they rotate through each day. These centers consist of science, math, ABC, and art. The homemade games could be lily pads with printed addition problems on them so the children can add or they could be papers with letters that we've learned so they can match the letters to letter blocks. Perhaps the teachers will print a picture of a farm and a forest with printed farm animals and forest animals so that students can Velcro the appropriate animal to its home. There are endless possibilities for homemade education games as long as there are the means to do make them. We need printer ink so that the children can make sturdy beautiful artwork that they can look back on for years to come.
Having printer ink to make homemade education games for the children will improve the children's sense of independence, participation, and critical thinking.
It will help the children have a love for creative learning and not just learning from a book. Ink will provide the chance to have hands-on learning.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
