My Project

Aloha,

I am a second-year 4th grade teacher transitioning into a new school.

My goal is to provide all the students within my classroom the strongest chance to succeed in both life and education.

I want to create a family environment where all students feel a strong sense of belonging, happy, safe, motivated to come to school, and feel like they have a voice.

The items I have requested are going to be used to create a fun learning environment where all students have a chance to succeed and grow. In addition, they will be used to reward good behavior and choices. As well as have options for students who need access to items they cannot get at home, such as food!

These items will provide me with stronger options to support students who need the extra support, have access to extra supplies, provide a fun learning environment where all students will be more motivated to come to school and provide a strong reward system for those making good choices and/or need extra motivation to complete their assignments or just come to school.

Any support would help me be able create a diverse classroom environment where all my students feel safe, motivated to learn, are having fun and are provided the best chance to succeed in both education and life.
