My Students
My students are amazing. As a first year teacher I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but these kiddos put my mind at ease the moment that I met them. We are in a rural community nestled between the beaches and peanut farms. In addition, we have a large of amount of moms and dads that are serving our country. We are uniquely diverse.
"The mediocre teacher tells; the good teacher explains; the superior teacher demonstrates, but the greatest teacher inspires"-William Arthur Ward.
We are also a Title One Targeted Assist School which means that we have many of our students on free or reduced lunch, but not enough to qualify for funding. So, in order to provide resources we have to dip into our personal accounts. As a new teacher there are so many things I would love for my children. I am committed to providing opportunities for my enthusiastic learners. My ultimate goal is to inspire my students to want to dig deeper, and to motivate them to be the best version of themselves. Teaching is my calling; of that I have no doubt.
My Project
My students are so bright and ready to learn - I'd love to give them a classroom that is most conducive to their way of learning. A cozy futon for their reading area will be perfect to encourage sustained silent reading. This, accompanied by another bookshelf to house all those books, will help my students evolve into life long readers.
"It matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be.” - Harry Potter.
My classroom is decorated in a Hogwarts theme to encourage teamwork, community, and learning. These items would help bring the Wizarding World to life for my students right here in their classroom.
Our classroom loves to PARTY! Partying is made so much easier with a big coffee pot (filled with hot chocolate or cider, of course) and a crock pot for tasty treats!
Lastly, our classroom is a safe place. In order to keep this classroom as safe as it can be, we need the students healthy! The hand sanitizer and tissues will help give my kiddos a safe and CLEAN environment to truly feel at home and comfortable in their classroom.
Thank you so much for you consideration of donating to my classroom and to my sweet students!
