My Project

My students are very excited about learning. The students are glowing sponges that are ecstatic and want to soak up as much information as possible as well as demonstrate what they have learned. They often self-correct their work but quickly go through their supplies to assist with correcting their work. Students are often frustrated when they have to start over because they have run out of materials to update their work. By providing additional erasers, pencils, folders, and markers to help my students, students will become less frustrated and continue to be more excited about learning.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
