My Students

I have a classroom full of amazing students who have a great desire to learn all that they can in the classroom. We love to learn in a variety of ways including: games, breakout sessions, and usage of the Chromebook cart. We try to have fun while learning, because that is how students will learn best.

The students in my classroom are capable of amazing things.

We work hard to showcase each and every student's amazing abilities through the work that we do both in and out of class.

My Project

Students come from so many backgrounds and many do not have access to the supplies needed in our classrooms unless we provide them for them. The supplies on my list will help many students every day.

Many supplies are things that will help students who may struggle with anxiety and focusing.

My project will help students with every day learning. Every week each student goes through roughly 2 pencils a week and if I want to prolong those pencils I need to give them an eraser. This project will help with the everyday use as well as the needed items to help those who need to fidget some while I am teaching or while they are test taking.
