My Students

My students are truly a joy to teach. They come from a variety of backgrounds. However, they do have one thing in common - the desire to learn.

Some of my students come to school with financial challenges that prevent them from having the necessary supplies and experiences.

This does not “dull” their desire to be successful. These students are my inspiration. My goal is to supplement the supplies they need so that every student is equal when they walk into my classroom.

My Project

The students that populate my classroom are from similar backgrounds. They do not have the opportunity to experience or be exposed to different cultures.

By reading about different cultures, students develop an awareness and appreciation for those cultures.

Our classroom library is limited in the resources it provides for my students. By adding multicultural books to our class library, my students will be able to develop the awareness and appreciation needed.

Reading opens so many doors for a student. I strive to give them every resource possible to help them be successful students inside my classroom and outside of the classroom.
