My Students

Third graders are full of fun and eager to learn new things about the world they live in. During the past year and a half with the pandemic, students have had feelings that sometimes are hard for them to describe. This was a traumatic experience for them. I love how my students stood strong during this time. Even with certain challenges like having to wear masks and going into quarantine, they continued to learn and grow.

Students need more movement in the classroom, they are not use to sitting all day in desks.

This project includes items to keep them engage in the learning process.

My Project

These items will give my students more opportunities to interact with others in a fun and exciting way.

Learning new technology skills, creating movies with a stand for the iPad and using a Circuit machine to create items for various projects.

New ways to practice multiplications facts and having flexible seat to discuss and create projects.

My students have had another difficult year and these items will help them to keep their brains active and also excited about learning. They can also monitor their own growth and learn to collaborate with their peers.
