My Students

Our classroom of 5th and 6th graders are a true community. We strive to learn through inquiry, integrate all areas of art, work with multi-age peers, and experience academic and social success in a variety of ways. I am lucky enough to teach my students for two years, allowing me to give them the best learning experience possible through looping.

We share ownership of our class and our school!

My students incorporate community-based learning into projects and across the curriculum. Growing up in Hawaii allows for such wonderful opportunities! Because we live on an island student’s experiences are so rich but sometimes limited. DonorsChoose.org is a platform essential to building resources and knowledge for our class.

My Project

We get to go back to the classroom! This is exciting for teachers and students but very careful protocol will be in place. Please help make my classroom safe by donating these items that will allow us to distance in our classroom space but still learn together!

The over the chair storage will allow each student to have their supplies with them, reducing students having to go to a common area for pencils, scissors, crayons, books, etc.

The mobile laptop holder will be so wonderful for students to have a comfortable place to use their laptops on the floor spaces of our classroom.
