My Students

Hello, I teach a 3/4 grade bridge class at a Title I school. My students are an amazing and wonderful group of 8-10 year olds who love to learn, explore and have fun throughout each day.

My students have specific learning needs and unique abilities and they are striving to become amazing readers and writers.

They love sharing their accomplishments with their friends and family at home.

Third and fourth grade is momentous and I want each student in my classroom to become better readers, writers, and mathematicians. I hope to continue providing and building a solid supportive learning environment so each child succeeds with the use of the right materials to help them meet all of their goals.

My Project

My students are special educations kids who love to learn. Being that we are upper grades, we don't have full size carpets in the room but we still love to gather on the floor to do lessons. These carpet squares are perfect for my students so that they can grab them and go anywhere in the classroom to meet. Then we can put them away when we are done with them. Being able to move the carpet squares anywhere in the room is better than having a full size carpet because learning becomes flexible. Please help us to make this happen. Thank You!
