My Students

When most people go to work, they are greeted by a computer, a register, or a telephone. I get greeted by tiny, smiling faces that are eager to learn. These amazing students are the reason I gladly stay till five at night, come in on the weekends, and toss and turn at night thinking about their successes and areas of improvement.

There is growing scientific evidence that shows students environments greatly impact their ability to learn and their test scores.

My goal create a classroom environment and provide supplies that help students thrive to the best of their ability. My students are kind, giving, happy and dedicated to their education. Knowing that cheeseburgers are my favorite food, I often hear "Mrs. Crane, meet me in the cafeteria, cheeseburgers are on the menu today. You can share mine with me!" They have pride in who they are, how hard they work at school, and the bond we have made. At my school, more than half of our students are economically disadvantaged, and many come from foster programs and/or are English language learners. Donating to my class today will not only help my current students but also many more to come!

My Project

Students have had to make a big change these past couple weeks, one of which is learning at home. There are many factors that make this hard for students and families. At school they are well fed, with friends, and have all the basic materials they need to learn and thrive! However this is not the case at home.

Majority of my students do not have basic materials they need to learn and have fun while at home, but I am hoping we can change this by mailing them distant learning goodie bags!

While the students will see this as fun, things like crayons help them illustrate picture for their writing. Markers help them color code word patterns and sight words. Journals will ensure they continue writing. Everything in my cart will be delivered to their home so students can get what they need to continue working hard and having fun!
