Debate & Mock Trial Classroom Update!

Help me give my students all the things to deliver motivation, incentive, and interactive learning! We need a document camera, rolling storage cart and dry erase board stand.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Smith's classroom raised $594

My Project

My goal is to help reward students with prizes as incentives. And, my middle school students are always hungry!!

Items in my list will help to create a welcoming, interactive environment that promotes successful, collaborative learning with necessary materials to dig into unsolved case files, analyzing true crime cases, conducting debates and mock trials, deliver speeches and analyze literature!

They can spread out and analyze all case evidence pieces on easels, to feel like they are in a real-life crime-solving room and also court room.

The storage cart will easily organize and store our class mock trial binders that are currently in a closet.

I do need the document camera for moments we want to show on the spot writing revisions and anointing for various writing tasks as well as popping images and sample writings up on display quickly.

These days, materials cost so much, and often, students try to help but actually need my help but, teacher's dollar only goes so far! I feel like providing the best environment and materials possible is going to enhance my students' learning.

Obviously germs are constantly creeping and we are out of Kleenex and wipes. My boys (I guess) tend to have issues that require air freshener.... I'll leave it at that.

My darlings seem to forget to return pencils loaned to them, so I really need to restock on those as well.

All our any donations are more that greatly appreciated!

Thank you.

Mrs. Smith Northwest Rankin Middle School Grades 6-8
