My Project

All of my students love to listen to books that help broaden their understanding of the world they are in, and explore the possibilities of worlds beyond their own. Every day they are exposed to classic literary icons and contemporary characters who educate, humor, and inspire them. In today's classrooms, students use their learning tablets as reading centers, reading libraries, literacy games, math games, for research, and science activities and experiences to take them to new heights!

My students come from diverse backgrounds, some with regular exposure to books and stories, but most do not have this available to them.

They are varied in their socioeconomic backgrounds as they are in their cultural and ethnic identities, making for a rich opportunity to learn from one another. The skill sets of these eager learners are equally distinct, providing me with an opportunity to challenge students in easy that are individualized and interesting for each child.
