My students need a classroom that "WOWS" them. The border papers, borders, posters, name plates, etcetera will do just that. What an inspiring way to start the new school year.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Parks's classroom raised $792
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
My students are an enthusiastic, imaginative group of fourth graders. They are living in an inner-city community. Many are living in shelters. Some are English Language Learners and others have an Individualized Educational Plan. There are many students who have repeated a grade. Most face challenges both inside and outside of school on a daily basis. Despite these challenges, they love learning. They work hard every day in school and at home. They work with classmates to problem solve. They have goals and are working hard to achieve them.
My Project
There is nothing like a bright and welcoming classroom to make students feel excited about returning to school. Entering a class with colorful paper, borders and posters will make them feel that this new school year will be great.
Imagine their delight when they enter the class for the first time.
The decorations are vibrant and inspiring. The welcome sign for the door is unique and perfect for fifth graders.
They will be able to start learning immediately because notebooks and folders will be available on the first day of school. Most have never had a planner which will help them take control of their learning. This will be an engaging way to start the year.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
