My Students

Our school is a Title I school in a neighborhood that has a rough background. My students overcome obstacles that I could never imagine doing as a kid. Despite any issues my students may face, they are hard workers that stay determined until they reach their goals.

Our school may be small, but every student has such a big desire to learn.

My students have a passion to learn new things and engage in new activities. We have a close-knit community where students, teachers, other staff, and parents work together to create a strong, supportive community.

My Project

These materials will each impact my students in a positive way. The small crates will keep our books organized and easy to find. Younger students struggle with organization, and these crates can help with that.

The whiteboards with dry erase markers and erasers will allow my students to practice skills as they are learning.

This will show me what students know and what they need more help with. These materials can be used in every subject and in so many ways!

The pocket covers can also be used with the dry erase markers and erasers! Students can play various games with these covers, practice problems, and work on handwriting practice and other things like that.

All of these materials will maximize student's learning!
