My Students

I am a first year teacher and will be be spending this year teaching third grade. I am extremely excited to meet and connect with my students and provide them with a fun, quality, learning experience! I can’t wait to meet them!

My Project

Being a first year teacher, I want to purchase things for my students so they can really dive into learning. I want to create an organized environment where they can learn in ways that will help information stick. I plan to do that by providing multiple ways to help them figure out how they learn best. This includes hands-on learning, center rotations, and independent learning opportunities. The math games, charts, and other manipulatives will help them build a solid foundation of the basic understandings of math. This is so important to help them become life-long learners.
