My Students

Fourth grade is a difficult transition for most students. The school year requires lots of joy, fun, and creativity, as COVID presented us with many challenges and gaps in learning. At my school, fourth-grade students have multiple teachers because their classes are departmentalized. The level of thinking greatly intensifies in fourth grade. This is partly due to learning deficits and life circumstances beyond their control. A great majority of my students are impacted by poverty and language barriers. One-hundred percent of my students receive free lunch. Some of my students are ELL learners. Most of them are eager to learn but need to experience more joy to push to the next level.

My Project

As time passes on, the world is beginning to function as if COVID doesn't exist anymore. We the teachers and students in my district are still required to wear mask on a daily basis. The biggest issue is that my students are not provided with mask other than the ones that I purchase.

Cleanliness is very important factor in keeping my students safe.

We need masks, paper towel, sanitizer and disinfectant wipes to practice being cleaner, healthy and safe. All of these supplies will help lessen the chances of my students getting ill.
