My Students

My students come to school full of energy each day and ready to learn. My students love to do projects and have Author's chair each day.

I have inquisitive second graders with a thirst for learning.

My students are in a Title I Public School and the school is considered 100% low income. My students have big dreams and understand that their education is important. Each day they come to school with a bright smile on their face and are ready to start the day. Each student works hard and gives their best to accomplish each task given throughout the day.

My Project

My students are in need of a learning carpet so that they can have an area for large group instruction such as shared reading and "Good morning message". The learning carpet will also be an area for students to go to complete group projects and small group instruction.

This donation will improve my classroom environment and offer a place for students to go to learn within the classroom for small and large group instruction.

At this moment students to do not have an area that they can sit and enjoy stories and share their stories as a class. This rug will brighten our classroom environment and give them assigned spots on the rug. Please help my students have an amazing second grade classroom.
