My fourth graders love to learn by building, creating and applying their knowledge. We use the resources we have creatively, to get the most out of them. They truly engage and comprehend when they are put in charge of their own learning with collaborative assignments and experiments. Our school is located in a small, low income community with a big heart. We don't have the best of everything but we have students who strive to make the world a better place. These children are going to make a positive impact on our community and our world. I want to make sure they have the resources to accomplish that.
