My Project

My students are a variety of ages, genders, and learning abilities! Our class uses various modes of learning and a large variety of supplies. We go through many pencils a day and are always looking for new creative ways to learn! Giving us the ability to use scissors, glue sticks, and different kinds of paper will help enhance our "craftivity" learning avenues! I teach both math and reading, and have all folders color coded so that students have an easier time finding their belongings that correspond to the right subject area. We appreciate all of your support and are working diligently to continue a high level of learning!
