My Project
Hi! I am going into my 9th year teaching at the best grade in the world! 5th!!!
I love my job and am passionate about going beyond the curriculum and standards, and truly building lifelong relationships with my kids.
The rug and pillows will be our gathering place to share and have open discussions with one another. The books will allow my students to not only read a great book with their class, but also engage in project based learning. I love to have my students help me create anchor charts that we hang in the classroom and refer back to as needed. The Sharpies will help to make these charts bright and colorful.
I am truly appreciative of your willingness to help me and my students have an inviting classroom where learning is matched by the love we have for each other. Thank you!
