My classroom is built on relationships and a sense of community. My students are eager, hardworking and excited learners coming from multiple diverse backgrounds. We create, inspire, laugh, sing, problem solve and grow together.
Everyday my students come to school with curiosity and hope for learning.
Working as a team and sharing ideas is essential to our development and stretches our mindset.
My Project
This project will contribute to pivotal times in our classroom day. The carpet will bring students together for morning meeting, whole group learning, small group interactive learning, opportunities for discussion of texts and math concepts.
This carpet will be home base for my class to meet, share ideas, make friendships, make a plan and get to the work of learning.
Students will love this carpet because it is a familiar spot for them to go to when meeting whole group and creates routine in the classroom. It is a cozy and safe space for students to return to after each independent learning activity.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
