My Students

Our first grade is full of motivated, exciting, lovable students who have taken on the challenges of the rigorous First grade instruction. We are currently in a blended teaching model where my students are in the classroom half the time and learning remotely the other half of the time.

Every morning each of my students greet me with an enthusiastic smile ready to face the challenges of the day.

In the afternoon I check in with the students who are taking their turn at home and we discuss the days work. It's a challenge - but I get to spend the days with my first graders big smiles and it's all worth it.

My Project

We are in need of ink for our color printer. We print out from the computer characters from our books, pictures from our non fiction texts, our mood meter words and clipart pictures to help us with our sound and word wall.

Help bring our classroom to life with ink for our printer.

I see trees of green, red roses too

I see skies of blue, clouds of white

and I think to myself, what a wonderful world. (Louis Armstrong)

Help me bring the wonderful colors of the world into our classroom.
