My Students

I teach a classroom of 20 first graders in Anchorage, Alaska. My class is full of children with a variety of backgrounds, cultures and experiences. However their eagerness to learn, as well as have a good time with one another remains the same across the spectrum. They all enjoy hands-on activities especially ones that inspire creativity and fully grasp their attention. My goal through Donors Choose is to be able to provide activities that provoke their creativity, require thoughtfulness, and that continue to hold and inspire them to continue learning.

My Project

We provide students with breakfast in the classroom if desired, and these wonderful resources will allow me to provide the other students who aren’t eating breakfast to choose and have activities at their disposal that will turn their brains on in the morning through creative thinking, or meaningful learning prompts. It will make their expectations during that breakfast period clearer as their choices, while it will be up to them to choose what they wish to do, it will be from the consistent and same selection. This will also allow us a quicker and simpler transition after breakfast into our everyday classroom schedule!
