My Students

We are a student centered classroom that is excited to take large leaps this school year! A typical day in my classroom revolves around hands-on activities and exploration for students to engage and grow independently!

A large majority of my students are ESL and come from a Title I community (77% of our students are free or reduced lunch.)

Our students are very motivated and hard working, which makes coming to work every day an exciting adventure. As a very ethnically diverse school, our students have a variety of cultural and economic backgrounds. Our students have a thirst for learning, and I aim to provide each child with the tools they need to be successful!

My Project

My students need these organizational materials to allow them to become highly involved in all subjects daily. Notebooks, paper, pencils, ink, and markers are a necessity for teachers to create engaging lessons for students to enjoy. My students will benefit greatly by incorporating hands-on materials with white boards and crafts for science, social studies, math and literacy.

I would like rich and rigorous materials that will challenge my students on a daily basis.

By providing materials like timers, erasers and labels, it will allow transition time to diminish and students to take their understanding to a whole new level!

Math and literacy stations are a part of our schedule daily, where students are able to access online interactive resources for remediation or enrichment. Headphones are essential to allow centers to run smoothly, and time to be used to its highest potential!
