My Students

My students are in fourth grade and ranging in ages from 8-10. Our school has 52% low income, which makes it difficult for many to take part in hands-on activities outside of school that would promote learning. As well, opportunities for field trips are hard for students who cannot afford to come along. This is why I want to bring the experience TO THE STUDENTS!

Walt Disney once said "We keep moving forward, opening new doors, & doing new things, because we're curious & curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

The most impactful learning is accomplished when students are surrounded by opportunities to soak in stimulating and hands-on information. My goal is create a classroom without boundaries and borders!

My Project

Teachers Pay Teachers is a great tool to find new and different ways to teach students, written and developed by teachers for teachers. I am requesting a Teachers Pay Teachers gift card to help purchase grade-level resources and activities for my students. The resources available on Teachers Pay Teachers are subject-based, grade-level appropriate, current, and relevant. A gift card from Teachers Pay Teachers will greatly help with effective planning and will be highly beneficial for my students as it will give me access to thousands of resources. The materials on Teachers Pay Teachers are creative and really highly engaging.
