My Students

My students are awesome. They deserve all the resources to help them achieve success. My students attend a Title I school that is considered high poverty. We have almost 50% of our students receiving free or reduced-price breakfast and lunch each day. We even have a weekend food program.

My students are working extremely hard to be successful with the Common Core curriculum, and I want to get them all the resources to achieve this.

I appreciate how hard they work for me each day, and I know they'd appreciate any support you could give them.

My Project

My class needs a random act for supplies. We need glue sticks, flashlights, and batteries. First, we need glue sticks to continue to do daily projects in class. It's amazing to see how fast the glue sticks are disappearing and we need many to continue to do art projects, math lessons, etc. Then, we need flashlights with extra batteries. I'd like to have a day that the students can read by a flashlight. I want to keep their interest in reading and I think that reading by a flashlight would not only be fun but keep them focused too. These are three simple items that would have an impact on my students on a daily basis. Any help is greatly appreciated.
