My Students

My students are mostly from non-English speaking households.

Some of my students have just arrived in the United States with parents who do not speak English.

Despite the many challenges they face, they come ready each day to learn and play with the most positive attitudes.

It has been a true blessing to watch my students learn and grow. A day in our classroom consists of enthusiasm, energy, and excitement. Every accomplishment, big or small, is celebrated. We love to learn through play and hands-on materials.

My Project

For this project, we are asking for STEM totes. We are not sure how our school year will look in September, but these baggies will hopefully help out! These little portfolios will make it easier if we are able to send home materials from our classroom for the kids to use at home. Some of these materials will include the If/Then collection. These STEM totes will be durable enough to hopefully not just last this year but many years to come. It is important that kids are given the opportunity to read at home. These totes will make it easier to keep track of our books and other materials we may be able to send home. It will also allow a place to store other important papers from our reader's workshop that we are using to help us learn to read! Math manipulatives can also be transported. This project also contains an easel/storage where we can store manipulatives and present live lessons using the If/Then collection.
