My students are hard-working individuals who come from various economic and ethnic backgrounds. They want to succeed despite all the odds stacked against them.
These kids show perseverance on a daily basis by attending school, holding jobs, and caring for younger siblings.
Some of these students even face homelessness on top of everything else typical teenagers encounter.
None of these obstacles stop my students from showing up to school and trying to obtain a promising future. I strive to provide the stability and comfort these kids need during these tough high school years.
My Project
With the large Post-It notes, the students will be able to visualize for those who learn better that way. By having different color paper, I will be able to organize for the students more effectively. The cleaning supplies will help me keep the students healthy, which will allow us to increase productivity. The hand sanitizer will be available for the students at all times as well as the tissue. The inspirational posters will be great to help the students be motivated to do their best. The wall file will be on the outside of my classroom allowing a way for the students to turn in late work even if I am not in the classroom.
