Springville, AL Grades 3-5

My Students

I teach 136 respectful, eager-to-learn, joyful 5th graders! My students come to school, ready to learn each and every day!

Although all of my students have different learning styles, many of them benefit greatly from hands-on activities in the classroom.

My students make me love teaching because they love learning!

My Project

This project will help me to continue building my classroom of alternative seating. My goal is to have my classroom completely filled with flexible seating by 2023.

Research shows that students learn better and retain more information in an inviting setting.

My students continue to amaze me every day with their joy of learning. This project will reward them for their hard work and give them a place to work hard while being comfortable. I want my classroom to be a place that my students look forward to coming to every day, this project will help me achieve my goals!
