I am seeking donations to help buy materials for my students next year. I would like to purchase more books to send home with my students in their take home book bags-daily, buy teacher materials for instruction, and even day to day supplies to be able to teach my students more meaningfully.
I am currently a 1st grade teacher at a Title-1 school in Niederwald, TX. Throughout the school year, teachers go to many trainings and learn over time and experience what tools and materials are needed for their classroom to run successfully. During an average school year so many materials are used by the students to learn through hands on experience and exposure. Classroom books are used, read, and worn over time. Technology comes out with new and improved ways for teaching the children of today.
To be a teacher, you really have to love to inspire the hearts of small children and love what you do! Unfortunately, in our efforts to strengthen student background knowledge and schema, we have to use a great deal of our own money to do so. From the small costs of snacks to books to even classroom furniture, the yearly costs surpass what we can actually afford without own impending our own family expenses.
ANY dollar amount helps. From $1.00 to $15.00, I appreciate your help in the effort to help our student learning!
