My Students

In my classroom, students learn that science, technology, engineering and mathematics can be creative, exciting, and fun. Students learn STEM by addressing "real-world" problems in our community, city, and beyond.

My students come from families from all around the world and from a diverse array of home environments, and we're all members of a strong school community.

My school is a place where all learners are embraced and supported with a positive learning environment. Project-based learning, personalized learning, and multi modal instruction make sure that every student has an opportunity to learn however they learn best.

My Project

Ensuring that there is a pencil in every student's hand may sound simple, but it requires resources. Each day I strive to ensure that all of the basic components of a classroom are available to my students. The markers, paper towels, tissues, pencils and cleaning spray requested in this project will ensure that my students have classroom essentials through until the end of the year!

Keeping our shelves stocked with supplies that are essential to learning makes the biggest difference of all.

These are materials we use each day, and having them at hand makes a huge impact on student learning.
