My Students

We have the privilege to work with 17 independent and super students, with various learning preferences, in an ICT classroom filled with wiggles, giggles, and wondrous minds. After long days of writing, reading, and math, we need choice time materials for us to explore and engage in peer reltionships.

In our classroom, we understand that mistakes are proof we are trying our best to reach our true potential and we need enough classroom supplies to encourage a positive growth mindset!

We support our hard work with rewards and choice time!

Our students range in a variety of learning needs and adaptations. Together, we have cultivated a classroom that celebrates the exploration of our potential. Our students are still learning to identify themselves and use tools to expand on topics of interest. As such, my amazing co-teacher and I hope to provide our students with the tools needed to facilitate levels of social learning and material exploring.

With your help, we will be able to have a classroom that strives to support the young minds of our students. We encourage our students to become independent learners and thinkers.

My Project

Our classroom is filled with 17 vibrant children who put in their best efforts throughout the day. When the days hard work is over, we need to be able to use our wonderous minds to explore and play!

With choice time options, students will have the opportunities to work in collaboration with their peers when building structures and tapping into imaginative play.

The use of dramatic play activities, sensory centers, and manipulatives are vital for our students’ growth in social skills such as turn taking, cooperation, and time management. We need magna tiles, pattern block tiles, bristols, and dramatic play pots and pans to help us have multiple exposures during choice time!
