My Project

I am so excited for this new year and to get to know all of my wonderful students. I am looking forward to helping my students explore the world around them, through amazing history books that can help them better understand cultures. I believe in giving students opportunities to use hands-on items to manipulate and see how something works to help them better grasp a concept.

What better way to learn than through hands-on experiences?

The the large X-Y graph board will help students better see and understand the process of graphing and the individual whiteboard graphs will then give them the hands-on experience. Science and Social Studies are such fun subjects for the students to read about, see pictures of, and make connections with their world, such as the book Ancient Wonder: Now and Then. All of the items requested will help the students and myself create a wonderful learning environment that is exciting and fun for our classroom.
