My Students

My students are kind, motivated and inspired to create. They come from a variety of backgrounds and many are second language learners. When they come to school, they are happy to get started to work and see their friends They are hard working and enjoy collaborating and working on projects together. They support and encourage each other every day, and are mindful of the feelings of others.

Most of these kids have big dreams to become teachers, doctors, and scientists when they grow up.

They are enthusiastic about their learning and love to listen to stories, read books, play games, and move their bodies.

My Project

These BigLife journal books will help us increase our Growth Mindset and support our academic and social development. We will have a legacy book to carry forward as a reminder of ways we have developed ourselves to be thoughtful, smart, creative and caring members of our community. This is a 200 page, hardcover journal designed to develop students self awareness, pride, compassion and creative expression. This is a memory book that will last forever...

These engaging activities will provide concrete examples and experiences that we will use to further develop our skills in persistence, compassion, hard work and confidence.
