My class is full of creative, caring, and hard-working students. These are kids who are willing to work hard despite coming from difficult home situations. Our district recently had significant cuts to funding due to budget cuts, and finding money for classroom supplies and equipment is extremely difficult.
We are a Title I school with 100% of the students receiving free breakfast and lunch at school.
Many students have a history of trauma in their lives and need a space where they can feel comfortable as they learn.
My Project
Our district has been learning remotely since the start of the year. I have an eager group of second graders however we are finding many new challenges with this new way to learn.
Having the right supplies and materials is the biggest challenge to learning at home.
This project will give the students books to read and notebooks to create stories and practice writing skills. This project will give each student a writing journal as well as story starters so that each child will have an opportunity to become authors.
