My Students

My class is filled with incredible first graders! I have never seen a group of students so excited about learning new things and wanting to explore the world! These students are fostered by an amazing school staff and supportive parents. In first grade, we are trying to apply the foundational skills of the alphabet and number sense from kindergarten into reading picture books and building math equations.

My students are enthusiastic about learning new things and furthering their knowledge and skills.

I can't wait to see how far my students can go as the year goes on!

My Project

It's so important to have hands-on activities for students to learn. Having items that students can manipulate is much more effective and can be a bridge between what's taught whole class and students being able to work independently.

The materials I've asked for are intended to enhance lessons and connect students with concepts through visual aids.

In my class, we have reading and math centers every day. I see centers as a great time to differentiate skills with students in small groups, as well have students working independently provided with exploratory items. With two sessions of centers during the day, I see a big opportunity with these materials to make my centers really meaningful for kids.
