My Project

I am requesting 100+ binders to use with my newcomers to teach them organization as they enter their new life as a high schooler in this country. Many have had their own educational journeys interrupted so I plan to target the soft skills that American students develop gradually.

I want our binders to be interactive so that my students will use them as a reference guide when they leave my classroom.

We will have dividers for specific content-area language dictionaries that we will build together.

My students come from all over the world and show up bright-eyed and ready to start anew and create a meaningful life in this country.
