Mrs. Latimer from Saint Joseph MO is requesting classroom basics through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Creating a World Visual Literature

Help me give my students their supply bags to work on specialized literature projects in my classroom. Due to our trying times in our world, I usually purchase these things for shared use in my classroom.

My Students

As an educator, I love the joy of being with my students and sharing their love of knowledge and their lightbulb moments when they truly understand something. I have been an educator for 24 years and the greatest joy of my job is letting students be a part of my life and family. I hate not being with them and teaching them new things and sharing their joys and sorrows every single day. My students come from a variety of backgrounds and sometimes struggle to come with the necessary supplies to be successful.

My Project

My students will be able to use these things both at school and at home to help their learning come alive about what they are reading and writing within my classroom. Students will benefit from having these supplies at their fingertips to better benefit them in their learning and working with others to gain knowledge and support group work in English class. They get so excited to share their vast skills artistically and visually! I am a teacher who wants to use multiple skills from students let them, be them, and show everything they can! Not everyone is smart in just one area, kids are so very talented and I love to let them show me ALL of their talents in their projects for my class! My students will use these supplies to create posters and projects to show their comprehension and knowledge of the text they are reading.
