My Project

What I love most about my students is their curiosity and eagerness to understand the world around them. Every day, they ask thoughtful questions, challenge ideas, and bring fresh perspectives to discussions. It's inspiring to see how engaged they become when learning feels connected to real life.

A newspaper subscription would help them tremendously by giving them access to current events, diverse viewpoints, and real-world applications of what we study in class.

It encourages critical thinking, reading comprehension, and civic awareness. Most importantly, it empowers them to become informed, thoughtful citizens who don’t just absorb information, but analyze it and ask, “Why does this matter?”
