Our students are respectful, responsible, on-task winners!
This year we have a focus on building character.
All students are different and the teachers and I work hard to meet the needs of every learner in our building. The first few weeks of school we will complete learning goals to guide our learning and so the children can help build the type of environment that will help them learn best!
We are a Title I school and have a high population of students who receive free or reduced-price lunch.
My Project
The author Josh Funk writes books that are silly and fun for kids to read.
When kids read books by Josh Funk they are transported into worlds with great characters and opportunities for belly laughs!
I want to build our classroom library with books like How to Code a Sandcastle, Lady Pancake and Sir French Toast, Dear Dragon, It's not Jack and the Beanstalk, and Albie Newton. We will use Dear Dragon for a mentor text for writing letters (a lost art in my opinion)! I can't wait to share some of his fractured fairy tales to spring my students into action in writing a story with a plot, setting, and characters!
More than a third of students from low‑income households
