My Students

My elementary students represent such diversity in a variety of ways! They have different home experiences and different learning experiences, all of which have helped shape who they are today. My job this year as their teacher is to provide them with the best possible year to help further enhance their life experience!

These phenomenal kids deserve every possible chance to succeed, no matter what it takes!

We are a large, Title I school with many struggling learners including students experiencing transiency issues and homelessness who need unique opportunities that a traditional student may not require.

My Project

My youngest kiddos have the incredible opportunity to experience STREAM fun in our Technology Learning Lab this year-gone are the days of a sterile computer lab for these boys and girls. I’ve learned quickly just how enticing beginner technology and engineering activities can be for these students!

A LEGO Coding Express train set is the perfect way to engage my students in fun with “toys” they love all while introducing them to the exciting world of coding and programming!

A hands-on learning resource like this will help even the most reluctant student feel eager and confident enough to try something new this year.
