My Students

Well, August is here and September is around the corner. Hooray!, because my former second students will be soon returning to school. I can visualize them taller and eager to start the new school year in Third Grade. My multicultural class is very special because the students come from different lands around the world such as Jamaica, Dominican Republic, Yemin, New York City, and Puerto Rico.

"Develop a passion for learning, if you do, you will continue to soar to great heights!

Many people limit themselves to what they think and can do. You can go as far as your mind lets you. What you believe, you can achieve..,” stated by Mary Kay Ash. That quote speaks to my mission of continuing to empower and enlighten my students to reach their potential. I strongly believe good instruction, grade approved materials and school supplies are the essentials for promoting healthy academic success.

My Project

Engaging my students in literacy and math activities as they use their new pencils, notebooks and other supplies will allow my students to be prepared for a successful beginning of the school year. They will be free of any concerns and focus on enjoying their learning in Third Grade.

I strongly believe having the necessary tools will enhanced student participation, productivity, and student improvement.

It is my mission to provide a plethora of opportunities for my students to soar as critical thinkers and learners. Again, help me with your generous monetary donations to kickoff an awesome new school year for my students.
