My Students

Teaching in a high-needs, Title I school, my students are often faced with challenges outside of the classroom. They are often unable to access technology outside of school hours for various reasons, including both socioeconomic status and stressful family situations.

My goal is to do my part in closing the achievement gap within my own district by providing students with opportunities to be fully exposed to and excited about all of their academic content.

I also aim to help them see the relevance to them!

We also have an increasing ELL population, so I have students who are great academically in their first language but having expected challenges in our content in English. I try to provide them with resources and materials in their first language where appropriate, and in tandem with the English materials.

Most of my students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch due to their families' socioeconomic status. This means their stresses outside of the classroom are regarding more basic needs. This puts them at a disadvantage in their early lives, to their peers competing for college admissions and eventually jobs down the road.

They are hardworking, motivated, and engaged in any content I present!

My Project

As we enter the second half of this school year, we are running low on our at-home learning supplies that we use each day! Although we're still holding classes through the computer, we use materials at home to practice skills, express our thinking, and make sure we don't forget our handwriting!

To make sure we are ready for 2021 learning, we need more of our most-used supplies to continue being successful at home!

These supplies are not usually expected to be supplied by students' families, so for the first half of the year we have scraped together what we can as a community. To support students and families going into the new year, it'd be great if every student could start off with the necessary supplies they'll need.

There is no better way to get out writing ideas than with an actual pen on paper in writing notebooks, and students are always more excited to practice math problems with dry erase markers so they can quickly move from skill to skill!
