My students have a passion for growing friendships and learning all they can! We are a Title I school where the majority of our students participate in free and reduced-rate lunch. We love learning alongside one another!
The students who enter my classroom are already behind their more affluent peers in reading.
We are committed to growing our brains! My kids love exploring and stretching their schema to learn more about the world around them. The students and parents are enthusiastic about learning but do not have the tools (books, writing utensils, etc.) to work on reading and writing outside of school. With a longer school day, longer school year, and strategic planning, my students will make significant gains to leave first grade reading on grade level. I can't wait to see what they will do as they move along their educational journeys!
My Project
These materials will help keep us safe in our classroom when we return from online learning to in person learning. We will be making many changes to our day to day classroom routines when we return to school. The main changes being around how we use our supplies in the classroom.
In an effort to support learning in the classroom I want to provide individualized supply bins for my students.
These baskets and bins will allow us to do some of the same activities we normally do as we learn in a socially distanced classroom.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
