My Project

What I love most about my students is their resilience, curiosity, and the joy they bring into the classroom each day. They come from many different backgrounds and face real challenges, but they show up eager to learn and grow. They deserve every opportunity to succeed, and with your support, I can give them a classroom environment that meets their needs and honors their potential.

Note cards will be used for our year-long vocabulary project; a working dictionary full of unfamiliar words we encounter together, defined and illustrated by the students themselves.

This personal tool strengthens reading comprehension and helps build confident, capable learners. Printer paper helps me create engaging, hands-on materials like word games, math practice sheets, and anchor charts that make learning stick.

Cleaning products and tissues may seem small, but they help keep our classroom safe and healthy so students can focus on learning instead of feeling distracted or unwell. Group organizers help keep supplies neat and accessible, teaching students responsibility while also creating a calm, structured learning space.

Every item you help provide supports not just academics but also the sense of pride and care my students feel in their learning environment. Your support shows them they matter and that’s something they carry with them long after they leave my classroom.
