This is my 2nd year teaching. My first year was a great learning experience for me as well as for my students. We are part of a district that does not have the financial resources to facilitate the growing minds of our students today. However, I have not let this get in the way of bringing new and innovative ways of learning into our classroom. We do the best with what we have, but was we all know, that isn't always enough. If I am being honest, I do need assistance with funding to help accelerate and enhance our learning experiences. I want to help mold and create minds to think outside of the box. I want my students to learn that there isn't just one way to find your solution. The options aren't just black or white, but rather a rainbow of possibilities. I hope that you find my projects and ideas worth the investment as I know my students and I would be ever so grateful and make good use of the items.
