Ms. Nelson from Camden NJ is requesting classroom basics through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

The Shining Stars

Help me give my students basic drawing and art supplies of pencils, markers, crayons, glue, and paper to let their creativity flow in art class and headphones for assessment to avoid the noise around them.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

My ELL students love to demonstrate their understanding by drawing with markers and crayons and writing on the chart easel pads during shared writing because of the English language barrier. The headphones would reduce all the noise they have to hear while taking the monthly assessments because my class is located in a landing area (hallway).

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus while taking the monthly assessment, but you will also ultimately help to increase their art creativity and academic achievement.
