My Project

I am reaching out to ask for your support in enhancing the learning experience for my second-grade students at a Title One school. I love being a teacher and I find it incredibly fun and rewarding to help young minds grow and discover the joy of learning. Each item requested below plays a vital role in fostering a productive and engaging classroom environment, ensuring every student has the tools they need to thrive.

Dry erase markers and highlighters will encourage active participation in lessons, allowing students to visualize concepts and highlight important information during group activities.

Math boards will provide a hands-on approach to learning math, these boards will enable students to practice problems and collaborate with peers.

Pencils and pencil sharpeners ensures that students can express their thoughts and complete assignments without interruption.

A magnet board for lined pages will help students organize their work and display their writing, fostering pride in their accomplishments.

Headphones will minimize distractions, helping students focus during independent reading or writing time.

Together, these resources will create a dynamic learning environment where every student has the opportunity to reach their full potential.

As I continue to add materials to my classroom, I want to ensure that this school year is a successful one for my students. Over the past year, I have faced health challenges due to Crohn’s disease, which has occasionally kept me away from the classroom. My top priority is to ensure my students have what they need to succeed.

No contribution is too small, and every bit helps. Thank you for considering supporting our classroom and making a difference in the lives of my students!

Positivity is Contagious!
