My Students

My students are energetic students that come from many different backgrounds. We are are a general education Classroom in the Queens, NY! We are mastering our 4th grade common core curriculum online and in person. It is a daunting task but my students are always bright eyed and ready to learn every single day whether we are are online or in person !

Our students will grow with the resources they need.

These students are creative, energetic, vibrant, and inquisitive! We are learning new concepts in Math, Social Studies, and of course Reading and Writing. My students are energized to learn and master the task!

My Project

Why do kids need Book Baggies? Our students always need to keep their books organized. This as an easy and fun way to keep track of our library books. This means nothing is lost and all the books can be enjoyed. There will be no question as to where the books should go. Reading is such an important part of our lives and these book baggies will be give our students the motivation to keep themselves organized and enjoy reading.

Give our students the tools they need and watch them grow!
