My Students

Amazing! There are 24 incredible students in my classroom who eat up everything and have a huge drive to learn. Our classroom is so diverse and has a lot of different interests. Their families are from all over the world which allows us to learn about many different cultures and ways of life.

My students love being able to get their hands on materials to learn and practice first grade concepts.

They also love art and working with different mediums.

My Project

These materials will help celebrate birthdays with stickers. They will allow students to access basic information on their name plates all year by protecting the plates so they do not need to be replaced. The erasers will enable students to quickly erase when they make mistakes instead of taking out their big eraser when their pencils do not have an eraser anymore. The quart bags will allow students to keep their headphones organized and clean. Also, the gallon bags will allow students to take home books from school to enable them to practice reading books at their specific levels.
