My Project

What I love about my students is the love they show teachers and staff. They are eager 2nd graders who love to learn and apply their learning to real life experiences. They come from a wonderful school that contains a diverse community of over 1,000 students, from kindergarten through 5th grade. Many children are from low income families and have different learning styles and developmental needs.

The use of whiteboards is almost a daily activity in my classroom, especially in math.

The whiteboards allow me to see exactly what they are doing, as well as provide an easy place to show and share their work
