I teach at a PreK-5 school that is filled with amazing students, and I'm lucky to work with a great staff. My students are creative, thoughtful, and full of questions! They are eager to learn and love hands-on activities, technology, engineering, and anything else that allows them to problem solve.
They come to school each day ready to learn and try new things in order to grow academically.
A typical day in my classroom is spent in small groups, working in labs, researching using the computer lab, or carrying out hands-on learning as I have found this most effective.
I would describe my classroom as engaging, supportive, rigorous, and full of love. I individualize instruction for my special needs students as well. I have a strong passion for teaching science, and my students know it. I provide them with a motivational and caring classroom community that is conducive to learning.
My Project
Help me give my students the basic classroom essentials needed to have an effective classroom learning experience. We need basic supplies such as colored pencils, posterboard, ink for printing projects, and various other items. These items will be used to enhance the learning process.
The students benefit greatly from having basic school supplies to complete basic interactive notebook activities.
They need these types of classroom basic supplies to be successful. We will use the colored pencils to complete interactive notebooks, the posters will be used in class to engage students, and the Magnatiles and colored pencils will be used to implement the engineering design process by building boats, structures that can withstand hurricanes, and many other STEM projects centers.
