My Students

I teach a wonderful group of third graders in a small district in Washington. My students have a variety of needs and levels of learning. Some love to read and I can't get them to put books down, some love their math and even ask for extra homework!

My students come to school eager to learn every day.

They never back down from a challenge, and the looks on their faces when they complete a difficult task is my favorite part of this job. This classroom is not just a classroom, we are a community who share in our successes and grow from our failures. While preparing them to move onto fourth grade, we also focus on having a growth mindset and how they can do good for the world, even in the third grade!

My Project

Read aloud is the best of the day. This story to my third graders last year and they were completely enthralled.

Watching students fall in love with stories as much as I have is my favorite part of my job!

Chris Colfer has created a world where all of the fairy tales we read as kids has come to life. Since this story connects to students prior knowledge and they love it!

I know putting a copy of this book in my students hands will help students access higher level text and be more engaged. When students are able to have their own copy of a story in their hands, they are able to grow in many reading areas such as vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension.

Thank you for your help!
