My Students

Our first grade students are a group that loves to learn! They are so inquisitive and amazed at the world around them. These students ask questions and push themselves to learn more about their topics.

These students love asking questions!

They experience so much by seeing, exploring, and doing. They are excited to try and discover new things.

I enjoy working with these students. They exemplify kindness, caring, and perseverance. These students support one another and are anxious to help each other out. They help me want to learn more as well!

My Project

Students need time to exercise and interact with each other, especially now after the year of virtual learning, they have had. What better way to do that than to play games together?

Our first graders love to play sports but are often without equipment to use during their recess time.

This equipment will not only help our students become more active during their outside play, but it will also help them learn to work together and play in teams.

Studies show that exercise is so healthy for our students. It helps to increase focus and improves mood. Let's give our students a good chance to get their wiggles out while playing together.
