My Students

My students are amazing! These little first graders work so hard, day in and day out. One of their favorite things to do is learn. Our school is a Title One school that needs so much more. School supplies are definitely one of those things. These students come from low-income households and don't really have technology or access to many things we take for granted at home. So if we can get technology in front of them, it will help them now and in the future. All my students are precious.

My Project

In this new age time in Education, we focus on lots of center time. This is a time where my students can work on Reading, Math, and Science in small group but I can focus on the few who are really struggling. We need Fun and engaging activities to help the students stay focused on their activities and learn st the same time. The listening center is a perfect small group activity. It is fun and super engaging. My classroom truly is in need of fun center time activities that all students can enjoy, Most everything in this project will help my students grow.
