My Students

My first-grade students love to learn! Every morning they walk into our classroom with a big smile. They love to read, to be read to, play math games, work on coding, and write stories. They are curious and inquisitive children, and they challenge me every day to grow with them and be the best I can be.

We work hard to create a classroom community where students can explore, wonder, and discover the world around them.

We ask questions, share our ideas, expand our learning environment using technology, and publish our work to share with the world. They work and collaborate with one another to learn.

Our school also focuses on character building. Children's kindness and compassion are recognized and celebrated. We are proud to be a part of an amazing school. We are a family. We learn, play, laugh, and grow together!

My Project

The new school year is around the corner. Brand new first graders are so excited to meet their new friends and start learning. The classroom is set up and ready to welcome the students. I have more students in my classroom this year than last year; this project will help me get enough materials for all of my students.

We need basic supplies and organization tools to keep our students distanced and safe during pandemic.

Seat sacks and book bins will help the students keep their materials individually organized. I need to create more tool binders that would hold students' learning tools. Other classroom basic materials are necessary to keep our classroom running smoothly. I would appreciate your support on this project!
