My Students

Welcome to our classroom! It may seems like just another classroom from the outside but as soon you walk into our learning environment, you will see why our students are so special. "What makes desks, pens, and paper so inviting?" Spending time with my students you would see!

You will see students caring and showing kindness towards each other.

You will see them working on skills and ideas that will help them achieve their potential in the future. When they grow up they may be computer programs, scientists, graphic designers, authors, engineers, entrepreneurs, or who know! The sky is the limit with these kids. Many of my students come from other countries and speak other languages. We learn from each other every day! I am so proud to be the teacher of these young wonders!

My Project

Healthy snacks will increase learning abilities in the classroom throughout the day. The snacks can boost their energy level for learning. Snacks enable the students to become more engaged in classroom activities. The snacks can help students to grow and develop more skills in the classroom. The snacks can help promote fewer behavior problems.

By providing the students with healthy snacks, we can increase higher academic performance in the classroom.

The snacks can help keep the students alert. A healthy snack can help encourage concentration and re-energize tired students. In addition, snack breaks can help students perform better on tests.
