My Students

I have a very energetic classroom full of many awesome students! They love to learn new skills, expand their knowledge, read new books, and take daily adventures. They are very active and love to be on the move.

Our school is in a small, rural town in Tennessee.

My school currently enrolls just under 1,000 students from PreK to fourth grade. The majority of our students receive free or reduced-price lunches. Many of our students come to school to have daily adventures and to expand their knowledge.

My Project

Having a laminating machine in our classroom is wonderful! It is larger than our old one and can laminate pages up to 12' wide. It came with a small roll of lamination film, but we are in need of some more! I love being able to laminate my students' beautiful art and classwork. Plus, the students want some more hands-on math and reading comprehension games. I will be able to make more hands-on learning activities with more laminating film.

By having more laminating film in our classroom, we will be able to fully use our laminating machine to make hands-on math and reading games.

I will also be able to preserve my students' work!

I am also requesting some mesh pencil bags, pencil sharpeners, and blank bounded booklets. This will be put together, along with door pencils, for their Christmas present! My students love to write and be creative. This will give them the tools they need at home to do just that. I have also included a pack of Pop-it Keychains because every kid deserves to have a little fun at Christmas!
