My Students

I'm a second grade Special Education teacher in East Flatbush, Brooklyn. My school is a Title I school and approximately 95% of its students receive free lunch.

Throughout the school year, I encourage my students to explore their creative sides through various art projects and activities.

For example, in the past my students have painted ocean murals, created 3-dimensional models of insects, and even created costumes for a class play, all using basic art supplies. After years of using our class set of crayons and markers, it’s time for a replacement! Due to the limited funding in my school district, availability of copy paper is limited. I am requesting a ream of white copy paper and several packs of fun colored copy paper to print homework assignments, class projects, flashcards, etc. on.

My Project

As a Special Education teacher, one of my main objectives is to make the curriculum fully accessible to all types of learners. My visual and hands-on learners will benefit from these art materials, as they can continue to express their ideas in non-written formats. Access to the copy paper will also help to provide my students with a balanced curriculum, complete with ample opportunities to practice new skills.

By helping to place new markers, crayons, and copy paper into my classroom, you will be providing my students with some of the most basic school supplies I can think of!

Thank you for your kindness and generosity!
