My Project
I'm seeking support for my eighth-grade math and science classroom at a Title I school to provide my students with the resources they deserve to succeed.
Our school serves a diverse and vibrant community, with 98% being military dependents, and some families facing different challenges than the "normal" home structure.
As a teacher, I am committed to making learning engaging and accessible. However, limited funding often restricts access to essential materials, technology, and hands-on learning tools.
The items I'm requesting for my classroom will create a more supportive, engaging, and nurturing environment that addresses the whole student—academically, emotionally, and physically. Yoga mats and sound chimes will be used to promote mindfulness and social-emotional learning. These tools will also lay the foundation for a new yoga club at our school, giving students a dedicated space to decompress and refocus. The mini fridge, healthy snacks, and deodorant wipes will ensure that students have free access to nourishment throughout the day, supporting students that do not enjoy the loud and hectic cafeteria space.
In addition, math manipulatives, multiplication tables, and globes will make abstract concepts more tangible and enhance hands-on learning. Essential classroom supplies, such as dry-erase markers, basic school supplies, and organizational tools like paperclips, binder clips, and tape, will ensure that students have what they need to stay organized. The tickets for a reward system serves to create a positive classroom culture.
My goal with this project is to create a learning environment that supports students in every aspect of their school experience. My students are special because they are resilient and adaptable, facing challenges that many other students do not. This project will give them the resources they need to thrive academically while supporting their well-being, ensuring that they feel safe and valued in our classroom.
