My Students

I teach at a rural, low-income pre-k-5th grade school in central Florida. Many of my students are being raised in non-traditional homes, including grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, step and half siblings, and foster care. More than half of my students qualify for free lunch status. Despite these challenges, our families work very hard to provide their children with the tools they need to be successful.

Kindergarten is full of new friends and new experiences!

My little learners are ready and willing to discover the world! I want to provide the most inviting environment possible for my kiddos to be challenged, interested and engaged in their educational experiences at school.

My classroom is a place where students can find the joy and excitement of discovering something new every day.

My Project

"Wobble seats" were created to provide movement input for the nervous system that can help calm and organize the brain. Three "wobble seats" in fun colors will help my students begin to learn to focus their brains while allowing their bodies to move naturally.

Kids have to move and tap and wiggle and jiggle.

These "wobble seats" will allow a wide range of movement, strengthen the core and encourage students to concentrate on their creative thoughts. The seats will be part of the classroom writing center where students will independently explore writing and drawing materials while engaging both mind and body.
