My Students

My first-grade students are eager to learn, creative and problem solvers. They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and games that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They are eager to come to school each day ready to learn.

They inspire me to be the best teacher I can be.

My Project

I am looking forward to providing my new group of first-graders the opportunity to use their imaginations to build using different types of materials. Children learn so much through play and my students have missed out on over one year of classroom play and socialization. It is my goal to make this upcoming year the best year yet. I know that having these materials in their hands will allow them to learn engineering, math, communication, problem solving and so many other skills- all while playing! I can't wait to see their creations.
