My Students

My students are active learners. They play sports, act in plays and know each other's families. These students understand the meaning of collaboration and learning. They know many personal things about each other's lives. The neighborhood that they live in has houses in close proximity to the other homes. They can walk to school or to their friend's house.

My school is a large part of the community.

The population of my students varies every year. My students are constantly changing. This year I have students with diverse learning needs. They want to be active in their learning and are very curious. They want to be empowered to learn.

My Project

I am needing some replacement supplies for my classroom. The students have used these items so much that they are falling apart. First of all, my students read novels throughout the year. To reduce their cost I try to buy the books or get donations. These books are loved to death. They get shoved in desks, the covers are bent and pages fall out. I am so happy the students love the books but I need some more. Also, we like to sit around the room and read, the cushions are also needed. The ones I have are torn or ripped. Some of them popped. These cushions provide comfortable learning spaces.
