The students at our school are members of a special family. With a variety of economic and cultural backgrounds, they make up the heartbeat of our school. They find it a safe place to be and look forward to coming to school to learn, if not to just be with our amazing teachers.
As members of our community and the world at large, my middle school students thrive on topics that they can directly relate to.
While having the opportunity to learn and grow into productive adults, my students need resources to help them be successful individuals.
My Project
By having additional resources, my students can spend more time engaged with their English Language Arts activities and less time waiting for supplies to become available in the classroom. Students will use the scissors, markers, colored pencils, and glue sticks for interactive classroom activities. Pencils will reduce students having to leave the classroom for forgotten supplies, missing important class time. Clipboards will be used for activities such as Socratic Seminars and escape rooms. This will allow students to maintain engagement in a variety activities that provide them the opportunity to move around the room.
I hate that my students are restricted to seated activities that don't allow for creativity.
With the donated supplies, students will be able to focus on the work at hand and not on what they don't have access to. I love the idea of the community helping these students be the best they can be!
