My Students

I teach at a title one school in Mesa, Arizona. Our school provides free breakfast to all families and the majority of our students are also provided free lunches as well. We run a program sending about 1/4 of our families home with food over the weekends every week.

I have already spent hundreds of dollars to revamp my classroom as much as possible on my own to turn it into a more comfortable “home” environment that many of them long for.

I want to make this a room these kids not only flourish academically in, but feel comfortable and happy emotionally as well. I just need help to get the last few things I cannot afford on my own for these wonderful little people!

My Project

Our class had a class set of headphones that were handed down to us 3 years ago when I first got to this school. Unfortunately, due to no ones fault, they have stopped working this year one by one. We are now down to only a few pairs of headphones that still work.

This class set of headphones will ensure that everyone is able to use technology to learn.

We use our classroom technology during center time in our first grade classroom both during ELA and math. They are able to listen to books read aloud to them during daily 5, and play on educational websites like Freckle during ELA and math centers. We also use our headphones for testing each quarter through NWEA or Map testing.
