My Project

Hello!

Let's work together to give my students the tools to foster their learning!

I am a dedicated 4th-year second-grade teacher in Atlanta GA that is trying my best to give my students what they need. Almost all of my students are from a low-income environment but that does not hinder their passion for learning. They are all very eager and excited to come to school and learn!

Due to working in a Title-1 district, resources are limited and not always readily available to my students. Most resources I have for my classroom have come from kind donations and out of my own pocket.

The resources I have requested for this project include books on my student's various reading levels. I want to continue to foster their love for reading. I have also included some learning games to keep my students engaged and excited throughout instruction.

Each of these items is needed and will be utilized in this current class and my future second-grade classes as well!
