My Project

My students are wonderful 3rd graders that come into the classroom with energy and excitement each day. They love learning and living together in our class family. I teach in an urban school with students from a wide range of backgrounds. We will be starting school earlier this year (previously after Labor Day) so it will be even hotter than usual.

This year I have more little pairs of ears than ever before!

With 34 students this year, my class supplies aren't enough for these little ones. Help me add to the number of classroom headphones we have so that each child can use them.
