My students are participating in a special program within our school. Our Title I school serves about nine hundred diverse students. We also house many special programs. One of the special programs we offer is for gifted learners. This program has around three hundred students in grades six through eight, and I teach about one hundred and fifty-five of them. I have the unique opportunity to teach advanced math to sixth, seventh, and eighth-grade students. I strongly believe good math skills will open up doors for my students to do anything they want in the future.
My students enjoy learning and look forward to being exposed to new material.
They are inquisitive, hardworking, and are always looking for new challenges. My students also love to play fun and interesting games in their free time and like to give back to the community. All of my kids have enjoyed the extras I can give them because of donors like you. They are always amazed at how lucky they are to have such wonderful items that enhance their learning. They have been excited about all of the community service projects and kindness acts we have done throughout the school.
My Project
In the world of COVID, we can’t do our normal tables and close seating, so flexible desks would help out a lot. Whiteboard tables are loved in my classroom, but we can’t have kids too close right now.
These flexible seating options would give the kids the same whiteboard experience, but with wheels.
They can sit single file and spaced out now and then when we get back to normal, we can join them back together again. It reminds me of Humpty Dumpty, but then we can put them back together again in the future: Thank you for looking at my project and considering helping during this challenging time.
