My Students

I currently have 25 fabulous fourth-grade students! They are funny, creative, outgoing, and they love to learn! I am the only fourth-grade teacher in the building so many of the students have been in the same class for many years! We also added several new classmates to our class and school this year! They have all been wonderful new additions to our classroom!

Be the change you wish to see in the world.

This is something we talk about in my classroom. There are many different ways to accomplish this goal. The first step is by being or becoming a lifelong learner. This is something I work hard to instill in students.

I want to create an environment where students feel they can take risks, try new things, and not be afraid to be wrong. As Elbert Hubbard said, "There is no failure except in no longer trying." We choose to keep trying!

My Project

This project is for some basic classroom supplies and goodies for my students! I am requesting chart paper, fun erasable pens for the students to write and complete activities with, envelopes for their school time capsules, hanging files to help organize student files, crayons for math stations, Kleenex items, and and other fun things!

Every school year there are so many classroom needs for teachers and students.

These new items will be wonderful resources for my students and classroom!

These items would be a wonderful asset for my students. These classroom materials will help the students and classroom all year long!
