Teaching in a low-income urban setting, I know that my students are faced with economic challenges both in and out of the classroom. Like any good teacher, I want my students to have access to as many materials and resources as they possibly can. While, our school provides many of these wonderful tools, we cannot rely on parents of our students to replenish and donate throughout the school year.
My classroom is comprised of 17 boys and girls with minds like sponges, ready to absorb all of the knowledge around them!
My students are full of positivity and creativity and never let adversity show. They are our future doctors, scientists, teachers, athletes, and mechanics---the list is endless. I am looking to give my students a giant push toward their futures by being able to give them as much as I possibly can. The future starts here and now!
My Project
It is imperative for my students to continue developing a passion for writing! This year, my students will have the opportunity to learn all about the writing process and how to publish their work.
Having individual notebooks to write thoughts and ideas, as well as crayons and markers to illustrate pictures, will give my students a real feel for what it is like to be an author.
I want my students to feel empowered to express themselves and continue to showcase their knowledge. By using these supplies, the students will use the skills they have learned to improve their writing.
