My Students

I work with a wonderful and diverse group of twenty-nine, fifth graders in an integrated classroom. We celebrate our differences in my classroom and know that as learners, we may need different things at different times to be our very best.

"Learning Today, Leading Tomorrow" is our school's motto.

We work hard to establish a warm, welcoming classroom community where all students can succeed.

My goal is to help all of my students feel successful in my class!

My Project

Flexible seating gives students choices about how they work best! These seats will allow students to use the entire classroom space to work and take control of their learning! Students will be able to find a place with less distractions.

My students enjoy having choices about how they work best.

These seats will turn all available space in the classroom into work space! The flexible seating options will help to motivate my students! Making sure students are comfortable is essential to their learning. I have noticed that when given choices about work space. They accomplish more and feel better about themselves!
