My Students

Tell me and I will forget. Show me and I will remember. Involve me and I will understand. Step back and I will act.-Chinese Proverb. Have you ever heard this quote? It describes our school day to a tee! Involving students with hands-on and relevant activities is imperative in today's world.

When you come into our classroom, you will see 25 bright and smiling faces, no matter what is going on around them.

My students are eager to please, enthusiastic about everything they do, and work hard to get from point A to point B. No matter what you put in front of them, my students diligently complete the task to its fullest extent. In our classroom, my students come from homes that are low socioeconomic homes. My goal is to be able to provide them with activities that will impact their lives, even in 3rd grade, and beyond. My students enjoy learning about different topics across the subjects, so this ink project inspired by Quill will help ensure we have the proper supplies and activities necessary to continue our learning on a daily basis. Even though we attend a low-socioeconomic school and my students are not always well-off, you will never see them frown, and they will always handle each task handed to them with their heads held high and their eyes always lit up.

My Project

The core curriculum (ELA, Math, Science, and SS) requires a lot from students. Because of that, students need the opportunity to express themselves using various means of learning. One of those means of learning I think my students will benefit most from is by utilizing printed materials such as centers, task cards, and printables. In our classroom, we are constantly looking for ways to engage ourselves in our learning and ways to grow. Nothing motivates my students more than participating in centers and activities that grasp their attention. Through the use of these printed activities (utilizing the ink provided by Quill), students will gain a wealth of knowledge and become well-rounded individuals, even at this young age. This is made possible because they can simply use their printable and center activities to hold academic conversations based upon what they are learning. This way of learning brings about a new definition and sheds new light on the words of "today’s education."

This project will change my students' lives for the better and will improve my classroom teaching in a variety of ways.

By having access to ink, my students will be able to utilize printed materials on a daily basis. We'll also be able to print our writing activities in a cinch. Need a short story to go along with our study of government or characters? No problem! With Quill's help, this printing project will allow us the opportunity to expand our horizons inside and outside of our classroom.
