My Students

My students are kind, loving, funny, and energetic. They love to learn and want to do well in the classroom and outside of the classroom. Each class I teach is diverse and unique in its own special way. My students are part of a low-income middle school.

Each student brings their own unique personality to the classroom.

My students love to work together collaboratively and learn from one another. My students feel empowered when they are able to teach another student something they have learned.

My Project

For this project, I am planning to purchase sanitizing wipes to clean student desks in the classroom. Due to the pandemic, we are required to clean and sanitize student desks between each class. The sanitizing wipes will help keep the desks clean and sanitized for the next student. I am also asking for boxes of tissues. As winter approaches and the weather gets cooler, students seem to have more "runny" noses. Being able to provide students with tissues each day is important and necessary. The last item I would like t purchase is paper towels. Classes are required to eat lunch in the classroom. The paper towels will help with spills and other cleanings that needs to be completed after lunch.

These products will help my students feel safer at school knowing they have a clean classroom and basic hygeine products when needed.
