My Students

I teach 22 students who face many challenges both in and out of the classroom. They live in a low-income and high-poverty environment in WI with very little access to up-to-date technology, math resources, classroom supplies, and interesting reading material.

I want to make sure my students have access to instructional materials and resources that will motivate them to ask questions, learn new concepts, take ownership of their work, and help make their future brighter.

My Project

As you may know, the weather in Wisconsin in very uncertain. That is why I am asking to please help me obtain Legos for my students for them to use during indoor recess.

With Legos, my students will be able to enjoy indoor recess and use their imagination to create objects, buildings, animals, robots or anything else that they want.

I will also use the Legos in my creative thinking center. In this center, students are able to use their imaginations to create their very own ideas.

Thank you in advance for your donations.

Ms. L.
Grades 6-8
