My Students

My students are amazing mathematicians, adventurous and focused, they are the future writers and artists of the world! My students are working hard to become the scientists and engineers of tomorrow by learning today! We are working hard in the classroom to grow reading skills! My students are high poverty students who don't let adversity hold them back from their goals and dreams. We have military family students and we live in a rural Oregon community. We are a diverse classroom community and we keep learning and growing in an engaging learning environment.

The students in my Kindergarten classroom are a creative, hard-working, curious, thoughtful, and adventurous group of children.

Always eager to learn the moment they enter the classroom as they look to the daily agenda to see what the day will be and then...we are off and learning with days filled with exploration, invention, reading, creative expression, practice, and thoughtfulness. I am looking to make their learning experience even more engaging by adding learning tools for the classroom through DonorsChoose.org donations.

My Project

I am always looking for fun and engaging ways to help my students learn!

The counting cookies and owl counting math games will help my students with learning their numeral recognition and help them sort and count objects.

The POP for word families and POP for sight words games will be an exciting and entertaining way for my students to work on memorizing their sight words and practice their blending for word families. The GeoSafari Jr. telescopes will be a great addition to the writers workshop as Spring arrives soon and we will gather things from around the school to look at and write about at the writers workshop.
