My Students

5th year teacher but changed to a new district this year!

Working with 6th graders is always a fun experience!

They are starting to understand themselves and each other! I always have a good laugh and experience each day! I am getting to know my new class this year, and enjoying every minute!

My Project

This is something every year I notice students needing to borrow from me and use in classes. I've only been able to afford the ear plug headphones in the past from Dollar General. Those are not reusable like other headphones and someone always loses one of the ear cover pieces.

Having headphones, I can clean and reuse would be so helpful for our small groups and for testing.

I can use them year after year. I will be able to offer them to students who cannot afford them or don't want to bring their expensive ones to school. I can use the shoe organizer as a way to store them more easily so that the cords won't get tangled and broken.
