My Project

Effective teaching guides students to becoming great leaders and critical thinkers. With the right resources available, teachers can make a world of difference in the lives of their students. Included in an effective lesson, is also students being engaged and leaders of their own learning.

The materials I am requesting will make a difference in my students' learning by allowing me, their teacher, the opportunity to create effective, engaging lessons.

These materials will give me access to many great resources that can be found on Teachers Pay Teachers. Also, a restock of markers and dry erase pockets (used a lot during math lessons) will allow me to continue to keep my students engaged and a part of the lesson.

Teachers Pay Teachers is a platform that allows teachers access to a wide range of resources and content that are engaging and promotes critical thinking. These resources and content will, also, allow me to further address and support students' classroom and academic needs.
