My Project

When students are learning the English Language it is my duty to give them the means to express their learning in different ways. In the past, we have created models of geographic features, for example. My students absolutely love to create with their hands.

Your donation to this project will allow my students to express their learning with a love of education as they show their knowledge through construction models - something we do A LOT!!

I have stocked my classroom up throughout the year, however in seeing the smiles on my students' faces as they create - I am going to need A LOT more materials. Your donation will keep my classroom a welcoming place for my English Language Learners where they know they will have options to create and show their learning while using materials such as colored pencils, markers, and construction paper.

Ms. Gatti
Grades 9-12
