My Students

Middle schoolers require different teaching methods day to day to obtain and keep students' attention. In order to achieve this, we incorporate many different types of projects to encourage individual learning. Each student has their own potential and can live up to it by incorporating individualized and interactive learning.

My students are eager to learn and learn better with interactive activities but at the same time, at their own pace.

Individual paced learning increases my students' confidence in their ability to learn because they are successful at their level.

My Project

Our class draws and illustrates often! These amazing young historians and illustrators need a fresh refill of high-quality​ colored pencils. Access to freshly sharpened colored pencils in a wide variety of colors is a high motivator with students. Our class would benefit from a larger supply of colored pencils to include an ample amount of these amazing colors.

I keep a large amount of markers, colored pencils, and crayons in the classroom that I purchased mostly with my own money available to all students; we are running low on some colors of colored pencils.

The students come with supplies, but they are kids. They lose them, use them up, or who knows what happens to them! That's the charm of being a kid. I love having easy access for any and all students to keep their supply box full and ready for our classroom activities. Please help to refill our classroom color supply! Thank you in advance for your help and consideration.
