English for Everyone

Help me give my students resources to learn English to be successful in the classroom. As a new ESL teacher, I have limited resources. The tablets can be loaded with book resources and be allowed to sent home.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Sweet's classroom raised $997

This project is fully funded

My Project

ESL students require resources just as much as their non-MLL (Multilingual Language Learner) peers. These resources will offer my students the invaluable gift of language, providing them with engaging language activities and access to technology that can be utilized at home to further enrich their learning.

Many of my students lack access to technology outside of the classroom.

Providing tablets that can be taken home will enable them to access a diverse array of books, fostering not only their literacy skills but also supporting their social and emotional well-being.

My primary goals revolve around enhancing literacy and increasing technology access for my MLL students. Equity plays a pivotal role in education, and by providing curriculum resources and improved technology access, my students will benefit immensely.
