My Students

Nothing brings a smile to my face like the sound of amazing discussions from my students. Students enjoy collaborating with classmates for special projects and classroom activities. They always look for a place to add their individual creativity. This year, we are specifically molding the students to think more like scientists and engineers by helping them develop models aimed at explaining scientific ideas and developing possible solutions for problems.

My school is a Title I school consisting of a great number of students who come from economically disadvantaged households.

Despite this obvious setback, together we are prepared to create a positive science classroom that focuses on learning, inclusion, collaboration, and hard work. We make a collective effort to embrace all cultures (Caribbean, Latin American, Russian, etc) so that students feel comfortable sharing their ideas.

My Project

My students designed their own flags as if they were a country. The many colors, ethnic backgrounds, likes, hobbies, food, language, etc, depict the melting pot of our students. Our classroom is a place of love, respect, and learning. Each student feels comfortable and safe to share their own opinions and ideas with their classmates. To continue with the theme of our space, we would like to celebrate each others' birthdays.

I firmly believe that all my students should feel special on their birthdays.

Help me give them a small gift. Something as simple as a birthday bracelet, pencil, and sticker can go a long way. Their education is very important but that goes hand-in-hand with emotional support. I believe that this small token given to each child will contribute to their social-emotional well-being and improving learning in our classroom.
