My Students

We seriously have some of the best students in our small-town elementary school.

My students are always ready to try something new and because of that, I want to be a better teacher every day.

I want to grow with them!

Our school includes over sixty percent free or reduced-price lunch recipients. Together our community, parents, and staff work to get us everything we need. I am so grateful to have wonderful people like you also partnering with us to help get our students everything they so deserve.

Although this year may look a little different whether in person, online, or a mix of both, I know we'll build our classroom community and become the family we always are.

Next year I will be teaching four sections of STEM classes and many of these books will inspire students at four different grade levels.

My Project

In less than 2 months my students will leave for the summer. I am going to savor every moment with my students. We have so many more memories to create. There are classroom items that are almost gone, or are already gone and I would like to finish the year with everything we need.

This project includes our wish list that will help our classroom meet the needs of every unique student.

Every year we create a classroom story. These items help our story grow and blossom.

The duct tape will refill our MakerSpace station. They love the creation stations. The locks will allow us to play breakout games as a reward and classroom engagement. Phase 10 and Rummikub were student requests for inside recess during rainy days. The disco light will be for our glow parties we earn for positive behavior. The boxes will help us store the items in their right organized spot.

Help our classroom finish our classroom strong! Thank you for investing in my classroom and caring so much about all of us.
