My Students
Middle School. What a wonderful age. My students are the prime example of what middle school students should be: Goofy, Curious, Strong, and most importantly, willing and ready to learn. I teach at SMS in Worcester, MA and I have about 60 amazing 7th graders. In Reading class, all of my students are below grade level when it comes to reading. But my students never cease to surprise me. They're ready to learn and ready to question everything! They jump at opportunities, set goals for themselves and strive to be the best they can be. They take on challenges and do not quit. They're hardworking and are the reason why I love teaching and why I love work at Sullivan.
My Project
My seventh-grade students struggle with reading as well as participating in the classroom because they do not feel confident enough. The guided reading books I am requesting will focus on guided reading groups in order for my students to receive one on one attention specifically directed to their needs. The whiteboards will help my students become active in the classroom and the headphones will help them focus when they're working on Lexia--a wonderful online reading program. I work one on one with my students a lot as well as incorporate different stations so my students learn to work together, independently and become more confident in their own skills.
By donating to our project, you won't just be supporting a teacher to help support her students, but you'll be giving my students the opportunity to grow and achieve their goals.
These materials will help my students focus in the classroom and receive the support they need to achieve academic success.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
