My Project

I teach a great group of first grade students. They come to school each day ready to try new things, take risks, and be a friend.

They are creative, thoughtful, and full of questions!

They absolutely love hands-on projects that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions!

I am requesting books for Inchy, our book vending machine. We have many students who celebrate Lunar New Year, and having How to Catch a Dragon will be perfect. I am also asking for Minecraft: Guide Collection and The Land of Stories series. These are all popular titles with our students, and they will be thrilled to see them in Inchy!
