My Students

The students in my school have many challenges facing them. Help me to be the best teacher that I can be by helping me organize my class. I have worked hard to collect, organize, and add to my lesson plans this summer, and with your help, I can pull the organization all together with these items.

The students in my school are from low income families.

90% of them are on free or reduced lunches. Many of them are from broken homes. Several of my students over the years have a parent incarcerated. This past year, our community experienced an F5 tornado. The tornado came within a few blocks of our school. Some of our students have damage to their homes. Our community is working to rebuild, and our school is dedicated to helping educate our students and inspire them to excellence.

My Project

Without organization, a classroom does not run smoothly. The paper organizer will help me to separate the copies for each theme. The tubs with lids will store books, experiments, and object lessons for each theme. This organized system will help me to be able to easily find each lesson and have it readily available for teaching. This will enable me to have a wide variety of experiences for the students in my classroom, and will greatly improve their educational experience

Great teachers use the summer to prepare for the new year.

I have been collecting items, lessons, experiments, and books to enhance my curriculum for the upcoming year. Help me to be the best teacher that I can be by helping me organize my classroom.
