My Students

I have the privilege of teaching 23 amazing 5th graders. My students are filled with energy and are so hungry to learn. They come into my classroom in great anticipation to discover the great things that we will work on! They soak in information and get so excited about knowledge. I teach in a Title I school which contains low income families. Every student in my school receives free breakfast and lunch. I take each opportunity to provide my students with the best experiences possible.

My Project

Did you know that you can highlight a phrase, shine a black light on it, and it glows? I would love to have these handheld black lights for my students to have a Neon Glow Reading experience like no other! I have glow lights, necklaces, bracelets, and decorations. Now all I need are the black lights and batteries! I want to create an experience for them that gets them excited about the content that we are reading about. What better way to do this than using things that glow! By donating to this project, you will be helping me bring a love of reading to my kids!
