Keeping Class Running

Help me give my students different ways to learn, online and offline, with a book on working with fractions and a gift card so I can purchase some of other teachers' lessons to use in my class.

My Students

High school students come to school full of unique thoughts, interests, and needs. They love to dance, read, sing, write, and just generally be themselves. Sadly, many of them want to learn but find that they aren't able to grasp it easily so they raise the white flag of surrender. They temper their uniqueness in order to not make their confusion obvious.

In my class, students are encouraged to use their creativity and interests to learn instead of conforming to the 'norm.'

Located on the coast of eastern Maine, most of my students have parents/guardians who work hard daily to provide for their families, and some worry about where their next meal will come from. Many of my students desire to move out of their parents' houses and make a career for themselves. This class is about using math to prepare those students to successfully live independently.

My Project

This project is meant to provide what I need to support teaching. I have printer ink on my list because many supplies I hav to print I have to do at home. That lends to my printer running out pretty quickly and ink can get very expensive. I'm asking for a 100 Days book since it addresses many of the main areas that students struggle. It builds upon their understanding day to day and is a good way for me to help students online as well.

I will only see most students 2/5 days a week; it's even more important that I have worksheets that I can upload and support my lesson enough for them to grow.

I'm requesting a gift card for Teachers Pay Teachers for that very reason. Many (more experienced) teachers have lots of ideas about how to reach students. Lastly, my students would love to have some Samsung charger cords for the class. This will also give me the opportunity to keep them off their phones during class and focused on the lesson. Any donations will go a long way towards reaching all my students in this crazy, COVID year.
