Quill - Will You Help Us Write Our ABC's and 123's?
My students need an easel, chart paper pads and dry erase markers to create an inviting, colorful and engaging environment to support their individualized learning styles.
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
I work in a Title I elementary school in a NYC borough. My Kindergarten students are eager and ready to learn despite the hardships they face, such as learning disabilities, learning English as a second language, poverty and coming from an immigrant population. They are full of questions and at times shy, but they love coming to school and learning something new everyday. Many of the parents have a limited education and are unable to provide academic support. That is why a positive and enriching school experience and the proper tools are so important. I want them to have the chances and opportunities that are not offered in many parts of the world, a chance to rise above their circumstances.
My Project
Our classroom is need of an easel, chart paper pads and dry erase markers that will help us create charts and visuals that will engage our students. As students with special needs and different learning styles they need visuals that will help them learn and remember their letters and numbers. Our goal is to give them a strong foundation that will help them become great readers and writers! Our portable easel will also be a great addition to our math center as we create charts, learn shapes, practice number recognition, improve counting skills and solve problems. Your generous donation to our project will have a great impact in our Special education Kindergarten classroom.
