Create in Me a Learning Heart!

My students need colored pencils, crayons, highlighters and markers to bring their learning to life. The chairs requested will be so great to make the classroom feel more like a home.

My Students

My classroom contains diverse people, as well as diverse learners. I have many military students, who may change throughout the year depending on deployment schedules. We also have a variety of local children, of which special needs and gifted students are included. We also have a high population of low-income students who may be growing up in a single parent household or being raised by grandparents.

No matter what a student's situation is, I enjoy working and learning with them each day.

My students are funny, smart, artistic, musical, you name it. By the end of the year we are truly a family.

My Project

My students will use the materials to create projects, color code our graphic organizers, highlight textual evidence to support their answers, use colored pencils to color our maps of different regions and so much more. We will create posters, postcards and billboards to bring their learning to life and allow them to express their creativity. The bean bag chairs will allow students to get comfortable in the learning environment, whether we are watching education videos or dropping everything to read.

The materials in our project will not only allow everyone to do what is needed during the school year, but to enjoy what they are doing.

I will be able to use the ink and paper to make copies for students. Colored paper is a great way for students to know when papers are extra important and helps them to keep track more easily. The items in the project will help us so much to do our work.
