My Project

My students are hardworking, curious, and eager to learn. They come from diverse backgrounds and bring unique perspectives to our classroom. Despite challenges, they show resilience and determination every day. With the right tools and encouragement, they have the potential to achieve great things, and I want to provide them with every opportunity to succeed.

The goal of this project is to ensure that all students have the basic materials they need to succeed in the classroom.

By removing barriers to learning, I hope to foster engagement, organization, and a sense of accomplishment in my students. Additionally, I aim to create a positive classroom culture where students feel supported and encouraged.

These supplies will help create a well-equipped and engaging classroom environment. Snacks will keep students energized and focused, while pencils and dry erase markers will allow them to actively participate in lessons. Highlighters will support comprehension and study skills, and whiteboard wipes will keep learning materials clean and accessible. Teacher stamps will provide positive reinforcement, motivating students to do their best. Lastly, the laptop stand will allow students to stand at their desks if they need a movement break. Thank you for your support!
