Every morning starts out the same in my classroom. Hugs, smiles, and then some really personal questions. "Did you have dinner last night?" , "Did you get enough sleep?" , "Are these the same clothes you had on yesterday?", "Do you have running water and electricity still?" , "Was mom home last night?".
Despite what chaos they may be facing at home my students come to school ready to learn with smiles on their faces.
100% of my students, and school, have FREE lunch. My babies come from 1 parent households, bouncing from home to home, even foster care. One student out of 18 has access to the internet with a computer at home.
In our class we have identified ESE students with special needs. These students require calm down corners, and special activities as to not get over stimulated.

My Project
Having cubbies in my classroom will help develop a better routine for my students to become and stay organized. Organization will maximize learning in my classroom and will help my students become more independent.
The key to any successful classroom is creativity, organization and routine.
Currently, we don’t have any type of communiation system. That means returning papers in a timely fashion doesn’t always happen. We know this causes issues in timely and meaningful feedback on assignments. Having a cubby communication system will help solve this problem. It will also aid in School-Home connections. Students will have a tidy and orderly way to turn in papers from home, and bring important notices back to their parents.
Students will decorate the requested folders on the first day of school. I will print a label (using the toner) and laminate their folders (using laminating sheets). Students will use these as “communicators” bringing items to and from school. This will be a fun and creative way to make them responsible for keeping up with and maintaining their cubbies.
