My Students
I teach in a neighborhood elementary school in a beloved Chicago community. My students are ambitious, curious, risk-takers, and always cease to amaze me with their constant effort, resilience, and persistence. My students are incredible individuals who are going to make a their own mark on the community, city, and world around them. I feel privileged to teach them each and every day.
Now, we are moving into hybrid learning, where some of the students are in the building, while other students are still learning remotely.
In order to make this process feasible, I am looking to purchase some items for my in-person classroom, in order for it to look more like a home. I want to create an in-person environment where my students feel safe, supported, and welcomed. I hope these materials will help to create this environment for my students.
My students are amazing people, who have been able to work through the extraordinary challenges that we have all been presented with this year, and come out of it stronger individuals and learners.
My Project
These materials will support my students to feel that they are safe, welcomed, and appreciated in the in-person classroom environment. It will help them to feel that they belong and that the classroom is a safe space for them. The materials will not only support me as their teacher, but it will support them in being able to have more access, to meet their learning needs, while also making learning more fun and exciting.
I am a first year teacher, so I am trying to acquire as many materials as possible to best support my students and their endeavors.
My students have already had such an amazing impact on me and I cannot wait to see how they are going to continue to learn and grow this school year.
