My Students

As a teacher working with students who come from low-income households, I am committed to making a difference in their school lives. Many students have challenging lives at home and come to school to learn and have fun. The school gives children like the ones in my classroom an opportunity to learn, have fun, and succeed in school.

My students learn best through hands-on activities and play.

I love watching my students being scientists at work, artists making creations, readers looking at books, writers expressing their thoughts, and so much more. The children are building on their social skills and school readiness skills all day long.

My Project

My classroom library is in need of improvement. My students love books however many of our books are falling apart or missing pages.

Social emotional development has been a huge focus this year.

I have requested several books on social skills. I also have requested math, science, and rhyming books. So much learning happens through books.

The class reads at least one book together as a whole group each day. During free play the children enjoy looking at the pictures in books. Having books that are new and in great shape will make my students so happy.
