My Students

Every day, I tell my students that they are special because each individual is unique and awesome in different ways. There are many talented children in my classroom.

The first group of students is ELL students who have come from different parts of the world such as Japan, Tonga, and China.

They are bilingual and curious about learning new cultures of Hawaii. The second group of students is future artists and performers. These students become thrilled whenever there are opportunities for painting, crafts, performances, and singing. The last group is the future scientists and authors who like adventures and uses their wonderment and awe to solve real-world problems.

My Project

Making soaps will continue to enhance students to communicate how to become responsible people. In our 2nd grade classroom, we have rules on how to be safe, be responsible, and be respectful. During our health and art class, students will name a personal health goal and describe a plan to achieve it. This goal setting is an important skill for students which can help them become independent learners. Also, they will be engaged in making soaps so they can describe ways to help friends and families protect their own health. This project can allow students to care about their own health as well.
