My students are a wonderful group of young superheroes just learning how to harness their powers. Just like Spiderman- with great powers comes great responsibility. Unharnessed, their superpowers may appear as a lot of energy. I know they have potential and are brilliant. Since the year has started, they've already made amazing gains. They just need a little help remembering personal space and where to sit (that is why I'm here- looking for a beautiful marked rug.) Our school is in a rural district with only 1200 people in the whole town. We don't have a lot of money. We make do or do without. All of our classrooms are decorated from scratch with scraps. Needless to say, we are resourceful. Being student centered, I'd like to help my students use their "powers" for good and education. They deserve it! Thank you for taking time to read about my kids and our amazing class of super heroes in training!
