My Students

My students are in a low-income area. Their parents work a lot in order to support them. It is difficult for parents to take time off to be in the school volunteering. These students face struggles such as lack of food and basic necessities, yet they are so resilient. I grew up in this community and faced many of the same challenges that my students face every day. I chose to teach here with the hopes of inspiring at least one child. The students at our school have so much potential!

Each year, my students love to help each other succeed, and they assist me in creating a classroom that cares!

I am in awe of the things they do to help each other daily.

The students at this school are becoming very excellent at technology, and they are always teaching me new things. Our school now has 1:1 technology, and the students are loving it. They are taking ownership of their learning through their data books and are reaching new heights all the time.

My Project

I have so many great lessons and manipulatives in my classroom. This past year has been difficult with Covid-19 and quarantines. While out in quarantine I realized that while I may know where to find my lessons and manipulatives, my team doesn't know where I store those things. I would like to use the file cabinets to organize my lessons with the manipulatives. I also plan to organize them in the order they are taught throughout the year. My students as well as myself will benefit from having these things organized even if I don't have a substitute. Being organized will allow me to put more energy into my students and not planning.
