Our school serves students in grades PreK-6 and provides rigorous academics, fantastic teachers, and a safe learning environment. My class consists of inner-city children, with greater than 76% of them being low-income children, including many children who have experienced trauma in their lives. They enjoy coming to school, are excited to learn daily, and appreciate what they have.
Despite so many hardships, they are eager to learn and do their best.
My students want to be in school to experience friendships, structure, and to learn they can be successful. The tools to help them succeed will provide a path to academic excellence.
My Project
My fourth-grade students have been working really hard this year and are preparing for state testing. We need a variety of Fruit of the Loom sized t-shirts, JANDJPACKAGING White Iron-on Vinyl Roll, BURVAGY Heat Transfer Vinyl, and Primology Heat Transfer Vinyl in a variety of colors to make inspirational shirts for all students.
How awesome will it look for all 4th-grade students to be encouraged to do their best by wearing the same inspirational t-shirt as their peers!
Spring tends to be a stressful time of year and I would love to get them excited and engaged by sending out a "You've Got This!" message.
