My Project

My students are curious, hardworking, and eager to learn! They come to school each day ready to tackle new challenges, grow their skills, and develop a love for learning. However, to truly support their academic growth, they need engaging and hands-on resources that make learning both accessible and exciting. With this project, I am requesting decodable books and math manipulatives, which will provide my students with targeted support in both English language arts and math. These materials will help reinforce key foundational skills, such as phonics, reading comprehension, number sense, and problem-solving through interactive and differentiated learning experiences. By using these resources, students will be able to engage in small group instruction, independent practice, and collaborative activities that cater to their unique learning needs.

My goal is to create a classroom environment where all students feel confident in their abilities and motivated to succeed.

With these engaging tools, they will develop a stronger foundation in literacy and math, setting them up for long-term academic success.

My students are special because they bring diverse backgrounds, experiences, and strengths to our classroom. They are resilient, eager to grow, and thrive when given the right tools to support their learning. By funding this project, you will be giving them the opportunity to build essential skills in a way that is both meaningful and enjoyable. Thank you for investing in their education and future!
