My Project

I am thrilled to meet my new third graders in September. My classroom is extremely small. So, I must revamp and revitalize some of the current materials I have in the classroom to accommodate my 32 new students and paraprofessional.

My students mean the world to me and I want to be able to give them the best third grade experience that they deserve.

It is my duty to create an environment in which my students feel welcomed and safe.

These materials will help me do just that. I plan to use these materials in order to create the best year yet for my future kiddos! My incoming students academic levels are far below grade level standards. In order for me to close the achievement gap, I am going to be to integrate heavy small group instruction during reading, writing, and math instruction. The only way this will be possible is if we have our own space in the classroom to have this special learning time together. The easel will help me display charts and scaffolds during the lesson and the chair will give my students and I a place to sit and engage in rigorous instruction.
