My Students

I am a teacher to 20 creative, resourceful students who live in a rural area. These students are inquisitive and are always wanting to learn more. My students are craving to get quality learning materials that will enhance their understanding of the world.

My students walk into the classroom every day with a smile on, I want to give them the opportunities to chase their dreams.

They long for interesting, age appropriate books in our classroom library. My students love publishing their own books and adding them to our classroom library. In fact, they have more writing materials than we have shelves!

My Project

My students would absolutely love these Osmo kits! My students are so creative and love taking their learning to the next level. The Osmo kits have activities would allow students to explore geography skills, word skills and mathematics in a fun and interactive way. Students have to quickly solve problems to advance in their respective activities. Therefore, students are working on mastering the skills they are working while playing a fast paced game.

My students can not get enough picture books!

They have become so engrossed in finding rich illustrations and learning how a picture book is made. They have studies various art styles and have tried their hand at different styles through illustrated poems. These books will help continue to inspire students to pursue their dreams for years to come.
