The students in my seventh and eighth grade social studies classes are fascinated by history and current events. They are energetic, inquisitive, and thirsty for knowledge.
I teach at a Title I school in Philadelphia where 100 percent of our students receive free breakfast and lunch.
I teach a wide array of students from gifted to those on learning support. My students do not have the resources that they deserve and need in the classroom. They love reading, researching, and using various forms of technology that allow them to be immersed in the topics they are learning.
My Project
Many of my students and their families do not have the ability to buy their own supplies. I never want a child in my class to be without the things they need to be a successful student. It is so important to me that my students feel comfortable enough to ask for school supplies they are lacking, like folders, pencils, erasers, pens, white-out, markers, binders, and page protectors.
All of the school supplies that are being asked for in this project will be placed in our supply closet, students will be able to take whatever they need from the closet for class.
I am hoping this project will help ensure all of my students have what they need to succeed in class.
