My Students

Our school is full of explorers, performers and inventors.

Each child brings their own creativity to our Title I, Visual and Performing Arts program.

From Kindergarten through 5th grade students are submerged into content through the arts. Our vision reflects our school’s spirit: “Through the arts, students will be inspired to become creative problem solvers, productive citizens, and life-long learners.” Each day they come with a flurry of questions to be answered about their world and our STEAM lab encourages that and more.

My Project

This school year has challenged everyone to problem solve and use their critical thinking skills more than ever. I want to provide my students with these games to practice these skills in a more positive setting.

Whether they teach their younger sibling or challenge a neighbor, board games provide an opportunity to practice valuable skills while making lasting memories.

Each game will increase their vocabulary, improve observation skills and develop forward thinking.

As they play, their minds are more relaxed to use the skills we practice during the school day and apply them to new situations.
