My Students

My students are an amazing group of kiddos! There are 27 intelligent, creative, and hard-working students in my classroom. All 27 strive to do their best every day in our classroom. They all love to work collaboratively and share their findings and ideas with each other. Not only do they love to work collaboratively, but they also love to move around as well.

As their teacher, I do my best to meet all of their learning needs.

I plan daily lessons to involve movement and group work. I strive to push my students to the next level each year because I always want them to reach their full potential.

My Project

My students are active readers. They are all flying through books! I cannot keep them on the shelves this year. Which is a great problem to have. One thing I have noticed, is that they are very interested into book series. The students start with the first book and will continue to read the series until they have completed it and then automatically wants to start a new series!

I am blown away by their eagerness to read all the time!

This class only wants to read. I feel as a teacher it is my job to reach their needs, and if their needs are to get more books to read then that is what I want to do!
