My Students

As a teacher in a Title I school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences.

My students are creative, clever and very spontaneous.

They like to move, they love to read and love lots of positive attention. Many of them are being raised in single parent households and receive a free lunch based on their socioeconomic status. These things may prevent them from getting ahead early in life and may not provide them with the life experiences many of us see as "typical." From the minute they walk in the door of my classroom I focus on their potential and growth while they are with me. I may not be able to control their home lives, however, I can certainly control their experience during the school day. By doing this in a creative and positive way, I am hopeful to inspire even our earliest learners to continue on a path of academic excellence.

My Project

This year I am looking to start incorporating STEM into my second grade classroom. I am hoping to enrich my students lives through use of science, technology, engineering and math in fun and inventive ways.

Each day will be brighter and more fulfilling by reaching all learners and tapping into their own personal strengths.

I am eager to see their brains work in creative ways and go beyond what we learn in the classroom.

Students can look up pictures of catapults or bridges and then design their own using nothing more than popsicle sticks, dominoes and some tape. I cannot wait to use these fun objects in my classroom.
