My Students

My classroom is exciting and full of energy. I have a group of students that are dedicated and eager to learn everyday. They always work their hardest. They are given opportunities everyday to explore and grow in many different ways. My students are encouraged to take risks to reap the benefits.

I am a part of a school that strives to challenge students to succeed.

I am a part of a wonderful team of teachers that creates fantastic lessons to keep our students engaged. It is exciting to go to work each day to work not only with my students, but with the school community too!

My Project

My students will use the book, "Hoot", during literature circles. I have many literature circles that run everyday. The books are selected based on a theme. "Hoot" will be a part of an animal theme. I want to utilize this book so my students have access to texts that are on their reading levels.

This project will make a difference to provide differentiation in the classroom to meet the needs of each child.

It is also a fantastic book that they will never forget. Sometimes it takes just one book to make all the difference.
