My Students

My students are an amazing group who truly enjoy learning. They are very goal-driven and strive to reach their highest potential. My students are special because they go above and beyond in their work, rather than doing the bare minimum. They all come to school with a smile on their face and are excited for the day ahead of them. They work hard, maintain a positive attitude, help others, and set an incredible example to everyone around them.

I am constantly looking for ways to challenge my students.

The students in my class understand, retain, and comprehend lesson content at a different pace. Each student would benefit greatly from extra support and materials in our classroom, that give them the opportunity to continue their learning. The higher learners need the chance to be challenged, and the other learners deserve every chance to receive the support they need.

My Project

My hope for each student in my classroom is to provide them with endless opportunities to demonstrate independence and explore new interests. With the support of this project, my students will be able to apply the learned organizational skills to keep their thoughts in order so they can retrieve information and use it effectively. Establishing a routine in an elementary school classroom is very important, and I wish to keep this routine as orderly and clear as possible. I can achieve this goal with the use of several organizational tools.

My students need an engaging and flexible learning space where they can meet, collaborate, create and research.

I want to help them acquire information in literacy skills, provide proper assignments, and further their learning by providing more engaging and fun activities to keep them motivated throughout the school year. My students love to explore, question, and collaborate through applied learning each day. They will better be able to do this with the support of the tools, games, and activities coming into our classroom.
