My Students

My students are from a low income income area. Not all of my students have the resources they need at home in order to be successful, so I try to provide the best possible learning environment for each of them while they are at school. My students are very eager to learn new things and they love playing with technology.

E.

Elementary School is an AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) school. This means that we are closing the achievement gap by preparing all of our students for college, even in Kindergarten. "Crayons to College" is our saying in Kindergarten this year as it is my goal to make each one of my students excited to go to college.

My Project

My students need games and activities that focus on the alphabet, letter recognition, reading, and math during centers and intervention times. My students will use these materials to explore their ability through building, counting, making letters and sounds, and then words! These activities will be used during various times throughout the day as we read and write while learning together. They will be able to use these manipulatives during our whole group and small group time, learning letters and sounds as they make words, numbers, and sets as we explore counting skills. Your generous donation to our project will improve our Kindergarten classroom by building stronger readers, writers, and mathematicians. This will change my students' lives for the better and give them new opportunities. They will love school and feel success at an early age --- having fun while learning!
