My Project

After teaching high school for nearly a decade, I'm making a major change. I'm joining a Title 1, urban school as a 5th grade teacher! I have a lot of what I need, but there a some things that are specific for elementary school, and a Title 1 school.

Help me get my students organized, fed, and motivated!

The pencil boxes will make sure everything they need is always ready, and the snacks will give them the pick-up they need when hungry bodies get in the way of learning. The stickers are for my prize box, which is currently empty, and the signs are to brighten up my room, which currently has bare walls! Finally, the books will be the start of my classroom library.

We're going to have a great year no matter what I have in my classroom, but these items would make my room a brighter, happier, more welcoming space!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
