At the front of my classroom is the quote, "Exceed Expectations!" I always encourage my students to go beyond what is expected of them and strive to always work harder, practice more, be better, and to go beyond what teachers, parents, coaches, and friends expect out of them. My class is a diverse group of curious, active, and determined students.
I strive to create a happy and comfortable classroom where children can enjoy learning and each other.
My students aspire to do their best in school and they are very interested in technology. I enjoy placing technology in their hands so they can use it in many ways on a daily basis. Our school qualifies as a moderate poverty school.
My Project
Students should not be sitting at their desks all day long. I have two standing desks, balance boards, a classroom spin bike, and alternative seating in my classroom that allows students to work comfortably. Unfortunately, during the summer, my classroom rug was thrown out due to mold and the age of the rug.
My students need a comfy classroom rug so that they can sit together during small group or large group instruction, to find a comfortable place to stretch out and read, and so they don't have to sit on the hard classroom floor.
This rug is vibrantly colored and would add a fresh burst of color to our classroom. but most important, it will become a place where the students can sit in comfort.
