My Students

"To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires creative imagination and marks real advance in science." -Albert Einstein. It's my goal to capture my students' imagination with meaningful resources.

My students and I have made our journey together from kindergarten to first grade.

We are a class of 18, ranging from ELL, ESE, and gifted. There are four languages spoken with a large number of parents serving in the military and national guard. The school is primarily free and reduced lunch with low income families.

My Project

Cross curricular is the name of the game by integrating science content inside my literacy block. Students will use the learning science activity tubs during independent work stations. These tubs will align with the previous donated non fiction readers to support our learning and provide a foundation for informational writing during writer's workshop. We'll also use the tubs to make connections with our reading during reader's workshop. Most importantly, we will gain independence with text structures and science during our independent stations.

I am convinced that having these science materials will enhance not only science instruction and student understanding of concepts but it will support other content areas, too.

With a focus to move student to their performance goal, I'm certain adding these resources will sprinkle a little fun while meeting our yearly expectations.
