My Students

I have eighteen students. Six are qualified as G.A.T.E., four have tested at below grade level, and eight have tested at grade level. As a result of Covid 19, my students have experienced several gaps in their education that could be improved with a few classroom supplies.

My Project

This order is in addition to Happy Children that was funded and supplies were received and have been used by students already. These similar items were in the original order, but not available because of a 3rd party seller. I would still love these similar items to replace those to help students with skills that they have not been able to practice due to Covid 19 restrictions. Last school year students were not able to be in class all year working with other students. Playground equipment was not used because germs were an issue. Basketballs will be used to promote teamwork, following rules, and being a good sport. Books will foster a love of reading. Thank you for considering these items for my students.
