My Students

My students are excited to learn! I encourage students to challenge themselves and push them to reach their full potential. I need your help to provide students with supplies that will help engage and differentiate learning!

My classroom is composed of 12 students.

I teach in an integrated co-teaching ASD Nest Classroom. We have both general and special education students. We aim to instill a love of learning and to push students to strive for their best.

My Project

This trip will allow students to learn about animal diversity and adaptations. Students will meet with zoo professionals who are knowledgeable on these topics!

Students have been diligently working from home and taking a virtual field trip will help engage students in additional learning!

Students greatly enjoyed meeting with zoo professionals in the past and have been asking for more interactive experiences with animals and professionals on these topics.

Visiting the zoo will engage students in learning and be an exciting adventure for the second grade! Help give my students a trip to the zoo!
