FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Dudczyk's classroom raised $214
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
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
My students are hardworking, clever, and fun to be around. They have a variety different learning styles. The students benefit from various levels of reading materials and hands-on activities. Their determination and resilience make my job so rewarding.
I'm fortunate to share in my students' successes and help them overcome their challenges.
Ninety-five percent of our school is considered low-income and receives free or reduced-price lunch. The student body consists of sixty-five percent Latino, thirty percent African-American, and five percent Caucasian students.
My Project
I am requesting six pillows for our Calm Reading Corner. Our sixth grade students participate in thirty minutes of independent reading everyday. They are provided the chance to sit in a comfortable spot in our classroom. However, we currently have a rug and one bean bag chair.
These pillows will provide students with additional flexible seating options in our Reading Corner.
This school year, I have been promoting how to find a comfortable spot to read. Many students have utilized our carpet area near the library, because it is quiet and dimly lit. The pillows in this project will provide students with the opportunity to curl up with a good book.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
