My Students

"Every student can learn, just not on the same day, or in the same way." - George Evans

Our classroom is filled with leaders and learners who strive for academic excellence!

Regardless of their backgrounds and situations, these amazing kids come to school every day with a ready-to-learn attitude and a smile on their faces.

If you take a walk through my classroom, you would definitely see my passion for education and attention to detail. Each school year, I strive to create a classroom that is both conducive to learning and functional.

My students are migrant learners who live on a reservation. They are eager to learn despite the odds they have against them in their lives. At our school, we do everything we can to help them be college and career ready. This includes being people who are hard workers and excited to learn.

My Project

I have students that learn on a plethora of learning levels. One medium I can reach every child on is ART! When students are coloring, crafting, and creating, I have their whole heart and minds in the activity! The book covers are going to be stretched over the students chairs so they can store their crayon boxes and learning materials close by.

With crayons, students will create activities geared toward individualized instruction.

With these basic classroom supplies we can have fun with hands-on math and reading projects.

Many of my students could not afford basic supplies such as glue and crayons.

I have spent all the resources I have had available on my students throughout the year and I am now wiped clean. I want the very best for all my students. I want to be able to give them the world. I love them to pieces!
