Learning and Inspiring in Our Room 😁

My students need these floor seats, electric pencil sharpener, power pens and more to assist them in both learning and growing. I love my kiddos and want them to feel that our classroom is their home away from home.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My students are my world! I love each class with all my heart. I want only the best for them and they are so eager to learn! It is my job to inspire them and encourage them in all that they do, big and small.

I always tell them “if you can dream it, you can achieve it.” I work in the largest school district NYC in the Bronx !

Students are our future leaders! They ROCK!

My Project

This is my very first project and I am so grateful and excited to start this new journey with my class! I like to create a comfy cozy learning environment. Since my kiddos spend a lot of time in our room, I want them to “feel at home” while they are learning and preparing for their first NYC State Test !

The flexible seating chairs will allow them to pick a comfortable spot in the classroom to do their work.

The multiplication cards and pens will provide them with a much needed “ fact” practice.

The pencil sharpener is essential!
