My Students

If there is any hesitation about trusting our future to the children we are raising today, this class of mine assures me that we are all in good hands. They are kind, independent, and able to adapt to any hardship thrown their way.

Children are our future, they become good leaders while learning from our past.

Look no further than our children today. I am blessed with a job that allows me to witness leaders in training everyday.

My Project

Children learn best when doing. In 5th grade we have the absolute best social studies curriculum, kids LOVE it! This camcorder, microphone, and lights allow for children to read, write, direct and act in a historical event. Reading about such times as crossing the Delaware, then writing a script, acting, recording, and showing what that must have been like. Don't just read about historical events, put yourself in their shoes by acting out what it might have been like is sure to be an event no student will soon forget, and that's what we aim for as teachers, meaningful learning that students remember. Along with social studies curriculum learning students will be chosen as actors, directors, tech specialists and scriptwriters, allowing these activities to cross over into other domains. It allows children to explore the arts and technology while learning about our nation's history. Help me give my children an interactive way of learning social studies while working on writing, technology, and performing arts skills.
