My Students

I teach a wonderful, enthusiastic group of 3rd-grade students in the San Leandro area. My students represent a community rich with culture, language, and diversity- one that openly embraces the quest for knowledge and growth.

These third graders deserve the best school experience possible - one that nurtures their academic, emotional, and social development.

As a relatively new teacher who is looking for new ways to stimulate the minds of my students, I need your help to provide the educational tools my students need!

My Project

My students are fortunate enough to have 1:1 access to Chromebooks in the classroom. We use these devices for a variety of purposes. Primarily, we use them to access online blended learning platforms that allow for differentiated learning in mathematics, science, and ELA.

Having a pair of headphones available for every child in my class could give my students the extra push they need in order to achieve at the next level.

A pair of good headphones will allow my students to fully focus on their online learning without distracting others. Students will be able to safely and efficiently store their headphones using the shoe organizer I am requesting.

I am also seeking materials to build a math vocabulary word wall. I will use the requested vocabulary cards to consistently expose students to the important mathematical language they need to master in grade 3.
