My Project

Hi! I love my students so much that I requested to loop next year and teach my outgoing 4th graders in their new 5th grade year! It is because of this that I want to create a new classroom environment for these students who have been in my classroom the past year. I want them to come back in the classroom in the fall and be amazed and excited by the changes.

These students come from underserved communities and deserve more than I can ever give them.

These materials will allow students to organize their writing (which is a huge component of 5th grade), and create project-based learning tasks that align with our classroom curriculum and mission. I want my students to feel the love and feel excited to come to class every day.
