My Students

As a second year teacher, I am thrilled to be working with such a diverse group of third grade learners as the general education teacher in an ICT classroom. The students are of mixed abilities, cultures, and experience levels, however, what they all have in common is their love for learning. They are excited and positive about learning each day, and not only do I teach them, but I learn so much from them as well.

My students are special because they all have something new to bring to the table.

My Project

These materials will make a difference in my students' learning because we will be able to find a home for the important assignments, tests, and paper work of each student. We will also be able to mount projects and essays on the bulletin board for all to admire.

These stapling, filing, and organizing materials and accessories will help to ensure that student work is displayed with pride and ease, and then stored safely.

Color-coded file folders and storage will allow for the establishment of student portfolios that will portray student progress and learning. These materials will lead to a successful and smooth school year!
