My Project

I love the fact that my students have a desire to grow academically. Covid has held our children back, but we cannot use that as a crutch. My students and I are determined to overcome this setback. There are some students that are significantly below grade level. I have instructed my students that they CAN and WILL grow tremendously. I have planned small group meetings and data meetings with my students in order to get them over this "hump". I know they can do it! I am so excited to be able to meet with my students in small groups and have others working on their activities/workstations. These materials will give my students the ability to have a meaningful task to complete while I work with each individual small group and help with unmastered skills. I am ecstatic about the growth that my students will show by the end of the school year.
