I have 20-25 students enter my classroom every year. My daily goal is make learning fun and exciting for all of my kiddos. Some days it happens, other days........not so much. Regardless, they depend on me to enrich their minds and challenge their skills. I do my best to make this happen by providing them with opportunities to work independently, work with a team, share their work, and reflect on their learning experiences. We work together as a team and support one another in all that we do. Creating a safe environment with mutual respect and genuine relationships is a key to the success of my students. Education and the way our children learn is changing on a daily basis. Thanks to Donors Choose and the donations of many, I've been able to provide unique learning experiences for every student that comes through my door. We appreciate the generosity of those that have and continue to support our projects.
