My Students

My students are my inspiration to be my best each year. Every year I wait with excitement and eagerness to set up my classroom for the my new students. I love the sparkle in their eyes and the smile on their faces as they explore their new world.

We learn and grow together, and every year is a new learning experience for me.

As we explore our worlds together, I set goals for myself to be a better teacher each year!

My Project

My students are my inspiration to be my best each year. Every year I wait with excitement and eagerness to set up my classroom for the my new students. I love the sparkle in their eyes and the smile on their faces as they explore their new world. This year my goal has been to work on a brand new reading area with new books and shelves and seating. An area they can call their own, a library full of exciting books that they'll be proud of and be responsible for is what I am striving for. It's a work in progress, and this project will help me get closer to my goal!
