My Students

I teach 4th grade math, writing, social studies, and science. My students are excited learners and constantly want to exceed expectations. They work together as a class to make the most of each and every single day, despite many struggling to have their basic needs met due to various circumstances.

My 4th grade students are excited learners and constantly want to exceed expectations.

My students work together as a class to make the most of each and every single day. They work hard and treat each other with love and respect - a skill that is taught and practiced at school. Many of my students come from low-income families and have a difficult time coming up with basic classroom needs, like pencils, paper, and tissues.

My Project

I am requesting 30 subscriptions to TIME For Kids magazine to integrate ENGAGING INFORMATIONAL TEXT into the classroom! Very few students have materials at home to help them succeed at school, and even fewer having quality reading materials at home. This in turn has made motivating students to read a great challenge. TIME For Kids is extremely engaging and real-world. These articles pique students' interests in informational texts and inspire them to want to learn more!

This project will change the lives of my students.

With quality and engaging reading materials, this project will instill a love for reading and learning across all content areas for the rest of their academic and personal lives. Without quality and engaging reading materials, motivating students to love reading is a great challenge!
