My Students

My seventh-grade English language arts students are kind, respectful, and willing to take on challenges posed to them. Our students, who live in rural midwest Wisconsin, are hard-working and recognize that technological advances that are available in the industry can enhance their learning experiences. The students I teach desire to be creative and have embraced the idea that showcasing their learning to others, such as parents and community members, creates a more authentic experience. Recently, my seventh-grade​ students of 60 invited over 130 community members to view and listen to their performances and projects entitled "Day at the Museum". I love that our students embrace learning and are sharing their learning beyond the school walls.

As educators, we are seeking to provide opportunities for our students to experience authentic learning where they are asked to explore critical thinking, creative, collaborative, and communication skills necessary for the 21st century.

My Project

Gordon Korman has a knack for engaging students with his humor and his ability to tell a story that teens can connect with. The books in this project are extension books to the Gordon Korman book Restart which we will be reading to our students. Students can learn several reading skills along with engaging in the characters struggles with getting along with the normal complicated issues students deal with when navigating middle school. The books in this project will be available for students as a follow-up to the whole class learning of Restart and can be choice reads for a their book clubs.
