My Students

I teach an inquisitive, motivated group of advanced fourth graders who learn by questioning and creating. They are a joyful group eager to discover new things each day. Together, we create a community filled with choice and empowered learners. Design and innovation are integrated into all we do and my goal is to provide exciting and engaging hands-on experiences so that learning comes to life. Ours is a collaborative classroom where students work together to make sense of the world around them. Through exploration and problem solving, students are better able to understand and make a difference in the world they live in. Learning in our class is an adventure!

My Project

After an exciting time of exploring historical topics of interest, students will design an exhibit board to share during our first annual History Night. Students will focus on events that have impacted the course of American history. In particular, they will examine events that helped bring people together. Through their research, students will investigate the causes and effects of the event as well as the way the event was viewed by different people and groups. Once students have researched, they will form an opinion and design their exhibit to reflect their analysis and understanding of the event. The colorful display tri-fold boards will add much to the visual appeal of the project on History Night and add much to the students' excitement for the project.
