Nurturing a Love for Geography

The Description

With these funds I will buy atlases for my students. As I do not have technology in my classroom, my students do not have many opportunities to hands-on explore maps. I only have two for my classroom right now—not enough for some of my classes that are up to 28 students! My students are so curious and are always asking to explore different maps of the world, find countries they’ve never heard of before, and just have the basic necessities for a geography classroom. I have also started a geography club after school, so funds would go to that, as well. In addition to my needs in geography, I will use these funds to buy dwindling materials for my classroom—laminator, notebooks, color ink (so expensive!), a lamp, markers, etc. Any donation will help.

Back Up Plan

If we do not reach our goal I will purchase the remaining supplies and/or take money from my savings.

About the Creator

I am excited to be a part of the TFA family and join the movement to solve education inequity in this country and provide all students with a quality education. I'm fortunate enough to be selected from a nationwide talent applicant pool to join a teacher corps comprised of leaders who commit a minimum of two years to teach in high need public schools. This summer I will be participating in an intensive skill and knowledge development program aiming to increase student achievement as well as a comprehensive professional development program including seminars, discussion groups, workshops, and content and professional learning communities specific to teaching license areas. I can't wait for my first year with Teach for America.
