My Students
We are a Title I, inner city, public school in California. My class consists of Latino and Asian English language learners who hold a high potential for academic success. Each and every day is a great adventure with my students. They make no excuses to work hard and learn no matter how challenging things may be.
My first graders are highly encouraged to be respectful, responsible, and scholarly as they prepare to be college bound.
Our school community values every student and we do our best to prepare them for their future. We want them to know that they are part of a great learning community that will encourage and support them to dream big.
My Project
We’re off to a great school year and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my class! My students are so eager to work and learn and they have a great sense of responsibility for their education. They’re great about completing their work, completing classroom tasks, and helping each other be better learners.
I believe every student who demonstrates the drive to better themselves should be rewarded with a little something to keep motivating them.
Therefore, I am requesting fun smelly pencils and markers, so they enjoy their writing time a little more. I am also requesting file folders to help them organize art projects and keep other important papers to share with family members during parent conferences. The dry erase markers are to replenish the old markers that are barely visible. They use these markers daily to practice spelling and grammar on their white dry erase boards.
