My Students
Currently, in my class, I have 17 inspiring scholars. I teach first grade at a low income, high needs elementary school in Charlotte, NC. My students enter my classroom every day with a handshake, high-five, or hug (in some cases all three). Despite whatever struggles or setbacks may occur beyond my walls, I want the interactions and education they receive in my classroom to be encouraging and optimistic. I want them to leave my class understanding that they matter, it's okay to make mistakes, and that learning can be FUN!
My students are creative, enthusiastic, and consistently positive.
They love to learn! They are bustling with energy from the moment they enter my door in the morning to the moment they leave. Their energy inspires me to be a better teacher and a better human being. As a first-year teacher I can feel overwhelmed at times by the workload and all of these new experiences. However it is my class, my 17 students, that ground me and encourage me to give them my all every day.
My Project
Currently, my district is taking specific printers out of our schools and classrooms, before this begins I want to make sure I am still prepared for my first-grade scholars. That is why I am requesting an HP printer, ink, Astrobright card stock paper, and lamination sheets! I believe a bright and welcoming classroom produces scholars who are bold leaders and want to learn!
With this printer, I will be able to print classroom assignments and activities from my classroom, and not have to stay after school late or find time during my planning to use the central printing.
By saving this time, I will be able to spend more time strategically planning to differentiate for my scholars and more time for building relationships with them!
