My Students
“Today a reader, tomorrow a leader.” -Margaret Fuller. Our rural elementary school in upstate New York has a student population of 350 students. Our students are at risk of failing the New York State Assessments and students who are having difficulty academically are recommended to receive Academic Intervention Services. That's where my room comes into play.
My students are hardworking and imaginative young learners.
They strive every day to improve all areas of their literacy deficiencies. My students are all very eager to learn and love coming to school. They are independent, hardworking, and compassionate.
My Project
I am a 6 year veteran reading teacher who is now placed in 2nd grade during this unprecedented time. I have no materials for these 2nd graders to use, especially when it comes to S.T.E.M. Time!
My students will benefit greatly from the selected STEM activities, allowing for individual growth when it comes to problem solving, machine building and developing creativity .
I hope to open new doors for my new 2nd graders with these activities. Seeing young students use their minds to work through problems and create new structures is a confidence builder for a young child! The building bricks, magnatiles, playdough and other STEM items will help my students have their own individual materials that are engaging and helpful! Please consider gifting these gift cards for my 2nd grade students this year. Thank you so much!
More than half of students from low‑income households
