My Project

The students I teach come from different socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds. I teach first graders at a Title I school. I am fortunate to have a diverse group of students. At our school, we have a high poverty level. All of our students receive free breakfast and lunch.

Help me give supplies and sensory items to students to enhance their learning experience.

Some students receive special education resource and ELL services. One thing all my students have in common is that they love learning. The phonics ladders, lamination, and markers will help students practice skills in a hands-on way. The weighted dinosaur and noise-cancelling headphones will help students with special needs.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
