Books, Books, and Supplies

The Description

With these funds I will purchase BOOKS for my 10th grade English classroom at Ruleville Central High School in the Mississippi Delta!

These books will be for the classroom's growing independent reading library and a class set of books we can read together.The more funds I raise, the more books my students have at their disposal!

Some of the books I will be purchasing can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/212EC4KQTNR5X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ep_ws_ZdoEzbFDEHQJV. These books are culturally relevant, multicultural, and suited for the young adults who will be reading them. There is a range of books to accommodate the range of reading levels in the class.

The class set of books will most likely be Fences by August Wilson.

A small portion of the funds will go toward classroom supplies that would otherwise be out-of-pocket expenses including paper (chart and poster paper, printer paper, lined paper), pencils, pens, highlighters, erasers, and post-it notes.

Back Up Plan

If we do not reach our goal, I will purchase as many books as possible for my students.

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.
