My students need writing supplies to help them with the writing process.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Viera's classroom raised $512

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My students are wonderful students. They are so eager to learn. They adhere to classroom rules and generally stay on task. However, as we know, students today are under enormous pressure. The expectation set for students today is very high. Every year, students in my school are expected to reach the NYS goals for their grade regardless of the challenges that they face due to their circumstances. Many of my students have economic challenges and lack parental support. As a teacher, it is frustrating to know that many of our students are at a disadvantage, but must still meet their state standards and expectations. The reality is that not all students have writing material at home. I also have students with IEPs and English Language Learners. These students need to develop and catch up to their grade expectations and these materials can help develop their writing potential.

My Project

Many of my students have a very difficult time beginning their work in class, due to the inability to bring in supplies. Having the proper equipment throughout the day could help them focus on what needs to be done. But, when it comes to writing, the writing process consists of many different parts, and I like for the students to highlight, use different color pens, and assist with their peers; and for that, I like them to use different writing materials.

The pencils will help them develop an idea and begin their draft, the felt pens will be for editing their work, and the Expo Markers are for experimenting with punctuation on their desks (writing on their desk excites them).
