My Students

Each day I am greeted by my students, who are eager and ready to take on our fun day of learning. My students have been given the opportunity to foster their education in a growing school in Brooklyn. The students are motivated and filled with excitement each day, and are ready to learn new strategies to help them achieve success in subjects such as reading, writing, and math. We are constantly encouraging our students to have open-ended discussions with each other and to explain their thinking. They enjoy working together and helping each other understand new concepts and ideas.

We have created a positive learning environment that instills a love of learning and joy in all of our students.

They are wonderful children who deserve to have all the materials and resources they need in order to succeed in all subject areas. Our school motto is "What we learn with joy, we never forget." We strive to find the gifted and talented in all of our students. We do this by teaching through challenging curriculums, and creating engaging and hands-on lessons for all types of learners!

My Project

Our kinders are continuing to learn each and everyday how to use their reading strategies. They are becoming more confident in themselves and they are finding a true love for reading.

We want to continue to give our students the proper support during independent and guided reading by supplying them with NEW and on level books.

This project will help us build our classroom library as well as reach our reading goals. We know our students will become very excited to go book shopping and fill up their book baggies with these new books!
