Our Basic Needs

Help me give my students the simple resources they need to focus on their education.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Moss's classroom raised $711

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are low-income in a Title I school. They often lack resources because their families can't afford them. These supplies are provided by myself and the school.

A lot of my students typically have to sacrifice to help their family as a whole.

Covid has been an extra burden on these families as some have lost their jobs, been without resources, or lost the support and stability of school. We also have a high percentage of immigrant and English Language Learners in our school. These families are facing adjustment to a new country in addition to a new school.

My Project

My students are in a low-income Title I school. This means that they are often coming to school without the supplies or resources they need. I am often supplying my students with things like pencils, paper, food, etc. This can help my supply my students for their basic needs.

We also go through a lot of supplies throughout our lessons.

My students use colored pencils often to color maps, diagrams, charts, etc. to help them better understand different historical movements or geography. To help keep our students engaged with curriculum we use supplies like colored pencils, glue, etc. for their interactive notebooks. The pencil boxes will allow my students to have easy access to their individual supplies to help save time on getting materials in class so we can focus on our learning. The individual whiteboards will also help my students with whole class review and practice.

I also have snacks listed because my students often are hungry and don't have extra food at home, or enough food. I try to provide food for my students to help them focus on their education rather than their stomach.
