My Students

My students are a wonderful bunch of energetic, ready-to-learn kiddos. We are ALL so glad to be back in the classroom, sometimes we can't even contain our excitement for learning! After a year learning in a new, virtual way, we are learning how to get back into the swing of things with all the personal connections in person learning brings!

We all love to investigate and explore new concepts.

My students love hands on learning that we discover through books, videos, and even through our own inquiries! The possibilities for growth are endless!

My Project

The materials I have requested in this project will help my students in this new age of a COVID, post-virtual learning environment by keeping them healthy and safe. The large organizer will help separate student materials keeping our little hands germ free! White board markers dry out so fast, these extra markers will help ensure each student can always have a marker in hand to demonstrate learning. Less hands touching shared materials keeps our tools squeaky clean from unwanted germs!

Buzz, Buzz, Buzz!

The buzzers are a favorite of mine and will be a huge surprise for the kiddos!!! I can't think of a better way to improve engagement, participation, and communication within the classroom. Not only will the kids be excited to learn, but the simple press of a little buzzer with fun sound effects will spark group discussion and collaboration. We can use these to team build and present our group ideas! Think win-win! (CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.SL.1.1).

The more we read, the better readers we become! The books in this project will help grow my students into readers who will grow to love reading not only for learning, but for fun! The books are also diverse and culturally significant!
