My Students

Our first-grade classes consist of some of the most loving little individuals I have ever met. They are so bright and inquisitive. These students deserve it all and I will try my hardest to give it to them.

Our students are excited about school and learning.

The district we work for has a high rate of minorities. Most of our parents struggle financially. As their teacher, I would like to get more resources for my students and for our classroom.

My Project

Our classroom is where our students come to learn so many different subjects! All of these learners and their different subjects means that we have a lot of learning supplies jammed into our little classroom. We really struggle with keeping our supplies organized. Such a struggle can create chaos and stress, two elements that all classrooms should be free from!

My students will thrive in an organized, stable school environment especially when there is so much uncertainty going on in the world around them.

Our school does not have any storage space or cabinet space for materials to be stored. My students deserve to have an organized classroom in which their materials can be found quickly and put away in their proper place. Their learning environment needs to be calm and organized to maximize their learning.

I am also requesting extra masks for my students. We are trying to stay safe.
