My Students

My fourth-grade students are active, fun-loving nine and ten-year-old children. These students love to play, create and entertain each other. They love free time and playing with their classmates. They love using technology to help them learn. They are very independent learners. These students are proud of their classroom and classroom materials. They work hard to have a clean positive work environment. These students deserve to have the best because they work so hard on a daily basis.

My students experienced Hurricane Michael first hand.

The catastrophic storm took away homes, clothing, books, etc. We are working hard to put our community back together.

My Project

I am asking for new books to add to my classroom library. These books will be used in the classroom and the students will be able to take them home to read as well. I also added some workbooks to help with students suffering from dyslexia. These students struggle to read and I want to make reading something they enjoy and feel confident about.

The diverse selection of novels and picture books added to this project cover topics such as anger, dyslexia, behavior issues, being yourself and building confidence.

I really hope you will consider supporting my classroom project. Happy Reading!!!
