My Students

We will have a class of 27 beautiful students who come to school eager and ready to learn. We teach our students to be leaders in and outside of the classroom. This means they are in charge of themselves and are responsible for making their futures great by making the right choices.

We may be a special education ICT classroom, but our needs don't define us.

For some students, our classroom is a safe haven where they know they are loved and encouraged to always do their best. Our students come from various ethnic backgrounds. Additionally, with our school being a Title I school, many of our families come from a low socio-economic class. Students have the opportunities to receive free meals throughout the school day including breakfast, lunch, and an after school snack. Despite what some may view as disadvantages, our students always maintain a positive attitude and strive to do their best.

My Project

The materials and supplies that we requesting for our students and classroom already have a purpose and home. In other words, we know exactly where everything will go and what the materials will be used for.

We just need your help in getting all these needed materials through our door and into our students' hands!

The colorful book bins will help us organize our large variety of books that will allow our students to easily choose books to read. A hole puncher, insertable plastic dividers, adhesive reinforcements, and Avery labels will help us organize our student work to include in our student. Having assorted crayons will help students create covers for their published writing pieces. A magnetic wipe board will assist with small group work activities where we can display questions and information for the students to solve. Having a drawer organizer in the classroom will help us organize our classroom materials so that both the students and teachers have easy access to supplies and important papers.
