My Students
My students are a very eclectic, diverse bunch. Some students have been with each other since kindergarten and some are just walking into the country for the first time. Most if not all of them are on different levels, so it can be difficult at times to have everyone working at the same level. Most of my students come from a variety of different socioeconomic backgrounds and countries. I am the ENL (English as a New Language) teacher for all the students in grades K-5. My students' demographics consists of Egyptian, Colombian, Mexican, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rican, Slovakian, Israeli, Bengali, Arabic, Tibetan, Brazilian, Korean, Chinese, and Ecuadorian.
Given the recent climate, the inconsistent school year has been very difficult on my students.
Receiving resources will help alleviate the stress of everyday issues in the classroom. I was fortunate enough to receive a new printer; I am now looking for help in purchasing the ink to go with it. I work in a Title III school in NYC, where more than half of the students are receiving free lunches. Unfortunately, we didn't receive much funds to help support the classroom. Any help is greatly appreciated.
My Project
I make many teacher-made resources for my students, as their English acquisition is at many different levels. It would be beneficial for me to print out resources for them on a daily basis. Creating a print-rich environment is very helpful to students who are just learning English for the first time. That is why making resources full of pictures, color, and repetition is important. Students will be more inclined to focus on the academic material at hand. I already purchased ink twice this year and it is very expensive. Any help for my project is greatly appreciated.
More than half of students from low‑income households
