My Project

As an extension of my rigorous curriculum, I am looking to expand the tools and supplies I can give my students in order to leverage their learning. I love to allow my students to engage in choice projects in which they can creatively demonstrate their understanding of a novel. Supplies such as the markers, sharpies, poster boards, printer ink, and boarders, students will be able to design engaging posters during their choice reading projects.

With these supplies, they will be able to explore and follow whatever creative expression they desire.

I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice in demonstrating their knowledge.

My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive of their peers when they are given a choice of project and creative outlets. Please consider helping continue to explore their creativity and passion!
