My Students
I teach Kindergarten at a small neighborhood school where the students come to school ready and excited to learn. We have a diverse community that ranges from median income households to households who are struggling to make ends meet. Our PTA ceaselessly fund-raises for our school but the money only goes so far in the classroom. Teachers usually have to decide whether to spend the donated money on basic supplies needed throughout the year or new and innovative teaching materials.
The teachers at our school really care about the students' educational experiences and would love to be able to provide enriching lessons and activities without sacrificing basic needs.
Submitting a project on DonorsChoose is the perfect opportunity to help fulfill that ambition!
My Project
Teaching in the Kindergarten classroom requires fun, engaging materials and non-stop energy! I am asking for a listening center and accompanying books on cd, fine motor skills games and various math and language arts games to help me accomplish my goal of creating a dynamic classroom environment.
I believe that children need to be taught in meaningful and creative ways.
I am constantly searching for new games and activities that entice my students. The fine motor, math and language arts games I have requested provide hands-on, fun learning. The listening center will expose kids to literature and make it exciting to learn to read.
I am also asking for book totes that I plan on using to update my current dilapidated book bags. I send book bags home weekly with every child to ensure that they have access to a variety of fiction and nonfiction books.
My ultimate goal is to create excited and engaged learners. Being able to give my students access to new and stimulating resources will help me achieve my goal!
More than a third of students from low‑income households
