My Students

My scholars attend an inner city elementary technology school that is surrounded by a low-economic neighborhood. These students don't have the advantages that most students in affluent and middle class neighborhoods do. These students are in a special education setting that range from second to fifth grade. My students come from a variety of backgrounds and nearly half are English Language Learners. Most of my students are not yet on grade level. Our school is working every day to revitalize our community and rebuild the space to craft the perfect environment for kids to learn, grow, and have fun.

My Project

The supplies and materials that I have selected will help my scholars succeed during the second semester of the 2019-2020 academic school year. They need paper and pencils to be able to write and complete all classroom assignments. We need markers, crayons and construction paper to let their creativity flow and encourage these scholars to showcase their artistic abilities. Index cards will be used to create flash cards for words they are having a hard time recognizing and remembering while reading.

My scholars are always eager to learn and I believe if we receive these resources, they will help continue to do that.
