My Students

My students have a unique mix of abilities and learning styles. They love to learn and are excited by new technology. They come from a small school in a rural community where some struggle to get to school daily with all the necessities. Even with these disadvantages, they come to school every day with smiles on their faces eager to please and ready to learn. They're readers, thinkers, mathematicians, scientists, authors, and tech specialists. With the right tools, they can change the world.

My Project

My children need these basic classroom supplies to be most successful in the classroom. The children come into my classroom every year with either no supplies or those they can afford from the local dollar store. This leaves me funding the rest out of my pocket. The most expensive item I have difficulty finding and affording is headphones. Our children are lucky enough to get Ipads every year to use in the classroom and at home for remote learning. This tool is the most needed to complete my goal. These other classroom supplies are used daily in my classroom and are needed for optimal student success.
