My Project

I love my students from the bottom of my heart. I would absolutely do anything for them to help them succeed in school. I love to make a difference to them, and knowing that they learn something new every day make my heart grow bigger and bigger. It shows that having school supplies can improve grades, creativity, attitudes towards learning, behavior, peer relationships and self-image.

Education is the first step to overcoming poverty.

A single pack of markers and paper could be the gateway to help the teacher have a bright and promising year. These materials will help me establish the goals in math, language, literacy, and social-emotional learning. The easel pad will help us with our daily morning message as well as math where we will work on numbers and patterns. The name tags will help all my students recognize their names and the letters in them.
