My Project

My goal is to build a rich and welcoming environment with emphasis on community! Helping teachers and scholars with supplies allows for a happy, healthy and engaging classroom environment amongst educators and peers.

Help give my second grade scholars name plate sleeves, bulletin board border(s), seat sacks, laminator and laminating sheets, library book bins, headphone(s) organizer, yellow analog clocks, privacy folders, first aid kit, cactus class decor, calming corner items, etc.

Take part in helping with my scholars classroom transformation that will ignite their skills and imaginations on a daily basis. What are the benefits of a welcoming environment? A warm, welcoming environment helps to build meaningful relationships between families and caregivers that benefit teachers, parents and, especially, children. When parents feel comfortable, recognized, and valued, a positive bond forms between caregivers and families, and children feel safe and cared for.

My continued focus is to foster positive emotions in our 2nd Grade classroom, which motivates scholars to learn at their highest potential while going above and beyond!

Ms. Rodrigues PS 159 Grades PreK-2
