My Students

First grade is a time where students are constantly learning and exploring. In first grade, children learn to turn letters into words and numbers into math problems. Exploration is a key component at this age.

First graders love to explore the world around them.

Some students have multiple opportunities to explore at home, while other students only have opportunities to explore at school.

My first grade students are full of compassion and the desire to learn more. We have a wonderful community where all learners are welcomed, respected, and diversity is honored.

My Project

We appreciate your help! As everyone has likely experienced in one way or another, this has not been a typical year. We have been participating in virtual learning (learning at home on a computer) and the first graders are doing amazing with it! Our school is going back to in person learning in less than 2 weeks. Students will be returning to full day learning, at school for over 6 hours.

In a classroom with windows that don't open, having an air purifier would greatly benefit student health and learning.

Air purifiers have been shown to help clean the air, which is beneficial for everyone no matter the situation.

Thank you for supporting our clean and healthy classroom.
