My Students

In my classroom, we recite The Learner’s Creed every day: “I believe in myself, and my ability to do my best. I will think. I will listen. I will read. I will write. I will do all these things, with one purpose in mind. To do my best, and not waste this day. For this day will not come any more.”

As a teacher in a Title I school, I am very aware that many of my students are facing hardships.

Children living in temporary housing, that come to school hungry, and do not have the basic tools needed for their education.

Despite any obstacle they may face, when my students walk through my classroom door they are a scholar! I continue to provide student-centered, rigorous instruction aligned with standards-based learning activities. These are the future leaders of our world. We must support them to rise to their highest potential!

My Project

The students have been so busy working this year that we are running low on many necessary supplies. The most important is certainly pencils!

The pesky pencil monster just loves eating the pencils in my classroom.

We are in great need, especially ones with erasers. My authors still have so many stories to tell but are running out of the yellow composition paper that they use for their draft writing.

The current focus is on guided reading and I would love to print a variety of leveled readers. I am also creating more literacy centers and would like to print things on colorful paper and laminate them for sustainability.
