My Project

My students are simply AMAZING! They work hard, care for and respect each other, and give their best effort every single day. They make everyday special and it is a pleasure for me to teach them. I love going to work each day.

The papyrus and classroom supplies will allow for enriching projects for each unit.

These non-fiction books will breathe life into our learning and add non-fiction books into our already exciting ancient civilizations units. In addition to the wealth of information the books will provide, students will each make an arrowhead necklace to celebrate their time as hunters and gatherers. It is something my former students have kept for a long time.
