My Students

Our students are creative, inquisitive, and hardworking. Whether they are working independently, in partnerships, small groups, or with the entire class, our students love overcoming challenges together. They not only push themselves when it comes to tasks, but love helping their peers to push themselves as well.

To foster our class communities, we strive to create and maintain only the best learning environments for our students.

Our goal as their teachers is to teach our students skills to thrive in and out of the classrooms.

My Project

My students will be coming back to school this September and I know they will be ready to take on a new year! I've watched these students push through obstacles and smile at the end with pride. This new year will challenge them on new fronts and provide ample opportunities for growth.

This project will provide student with tools and spaces to continue their journey as autonomous learners.

I've seen my students use materials to enhance their learning on their own. I'm excited to see my students taken even MORE charge of their learning this year. The bookshelves and bins will house their school supplies. These will act as cubbies in their new third grade room. The 12-compartment drawers will house everyday supplies such as staplers, sharpies, extra erasers, and paperclips. My students will stay organized and know exactly where they can access these supplies on their own.
