My Students

I am a strong believer that the more you laugh the more you learn. My students are some of the coolest and funniest people I know. They teach me everyday with their actions, jokes, stories, writing and insights of the class material. We have so much fun because we all believe in each other and want to help each other think in new ways. We focus on laughter and positivity and how that can make us grow. My students are creative, strong, passionate, humorous, driven, and overall amazing humans!

A lot of my students don't have very much money, and school is really their safe place.

I strive to make my classroom an inclusive, happy, and conducive place of learning. Because of Covid I can see how hard learning has become for students. They want to be in the classroom and they want to learn, but it definitely hasn't been easy. My students inspire me everyday to keep going and to continue trying to be the best version of me!

My Project

Flexible seating options and different games help students feel more comfortable and at home in the classroom. After learning at home and spending a lot of time outside the classroom, learning has become hard for a lot of students. I am hoping that by giving students more options to learn in a position that is comfortable for them, like on a floor cushion with a clipboard, or at a standing table, they will be able to focus more.

In a world focused on instant gratification and instant answers, I hope to teach students how to learn and work through difficult problems.

I hope the different games will allow students to find joy and laughter in learning while also applying what they are learning into a higher way of thinking. Other resources are going to organizing the classroom and creating visuals for different lessons.
