My Project
As an educator, I know how important it is for students to feel motivated and confident in their abilities, especially when they are struggling with a skill as fundamental as reading. For many of my students, reading is a challenging subject that causes frustration, self-doubt, and a lack of enthusiasm for learning. However, with the right encouragement and support, these students can experience tremendous growth and success!
The items being requested will help the students in many ways.
I am requesting items including crayons and fidget toys for students in need. This way, students can get what they need to be taken care of. This results in success in the classroom.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
