My Students

I love that my students are inspirations to me. My students deserve the best teacher and the best education. Looking at my students, I am motivated to give them the best. I have the pleasure of teaching them for an entire year, adding more knowledge to what they already have obtained in their former grades. My students are special because they are little human beings with eager minds and ready to learn all that I have to teach them. Despite the current state of the world, I have students who love school and love to interact. My students are future engineers, doctors, lawyers, political leaders, teachers, preachers, social workers, pilots, dentist, physical therapist, guidance counselors, and the list is endless.

My Project

This school year, I have made sure to teach my students about the various beauty of their peers and their neighbors. We are currently learning about influential women in the world. My students will take a moment to make portraits to dedicate to an influential woman in their life. Through these art supplies, my students will combine all that they have learned and dedicate an art piece to show their appreciation for the work that has been laid before them. Also, I have included individual flexible seating which will allow my students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent work times they choose a location in the classroom that works for them.
