I am a 3rd grade teacher at a Title I school, teaming up with a fantastic reading teacher to support two lively groups of students—one in the morning and one in the afternoon—for a total of 32 bright and determined learners. My students arrive each day eager to grow in math, reading, writing, and science, and they truly thrive when learning feels engaging and meaningful. In our classroom, I integrate technology to strengthen understanding and build confidence, and I often gamify lessons to motivate students and make learning fun and interactive. Their curiosity, energy, and resilience inspire me daily, and I’m dedicated to giving them the tools and experiences they need to succeed.
