My Students
The love of learning begins at a very early age! My classroom is full of very active little learners. Our children attend a Title I school that is located in an urban; high poverty community, where 96% of the students are economically disadvantaged.
The majority of my students are either homeless or come from single-parent homes, which causes them to have a limited access to everyday learning material.
It is hurtful to say that so many of them have been through much more in their short 3-5 years than any of us could ever imagine. Even with that being said, they somehow find a way to come to school every day eager and ready to learn.
My Project
I am requesting assistance with a school bus for my students to travel to Bellaboo’s Discovery Center. Bellaboo’s is a discovery center where child play is self-directed in a secure facility, where children are able to explore, create, and interact with their teachers and peers in an area geared strictly for them.
In my opinion, field trips are a key component of school instruction; they broaden the educational experiences and bridge the gap between education and hands-on experiences, which make a subject or classroom activity that more relevant.
If children are given the choice between a camping trip with teachers and their peers and a desk, chair and a black board; what tot wouldn’t make a run for the school bus?
