My Students

My unique, enthusiastic students are students in an inner-city, Title I school. All the students are entitled to a free lunch, as well as breakfast. This does not stop their determination and hard work. These students are focused and fun to work with.

My students are an enthusiastic and diverse group of lifelong learners.

They love to learn and have a great work ethic. They are eager little learners. These children may be learners today, but they are the leaders of tomorrow.

My Project

My students will be using square tiles to learn about abstract math concepts and make them more concrete. Rulers will be used to learn about measurement. The pocket chart kit will help me teach my students the numbers and numbers patterns they are expected to master. My students often come with out basic supplies like pencils. It is great to have these on hand to have with out having to waste time in the middle of a lesson or make anyone feel bad. Folders are needed for both homework folders as well as creating centers. Scissors are actually used in projects in all subjects. The badges are to help children feel special on their special day!
