My Students
My students are interesting, fun-loving, humerus kids! As 8th graders, they are at a remarkable point in their lives. After this year, they will be practically grown! My kids love learning new things, and they ask questions about everything. I strive to make a difference in their lives, bring a little bit of happiness and excitement into their school day, and to make them each feel like they are the most important part of my day. However, I find them doing that for me because they are so great!
My Project
Dinosaurs?!? These students love learning about the Earth's biological history and all of the changes that have happened in the last 4.6 billion years ago. My students are particularly fascinated with the dinosaurs of the Mesozoic Era and the fossils that have been found that help paleontologists identify the creatures of the different Eras. By helping us get the Jurassic Park books, you will be helping them enjoy their learning! While tying in a topic that I have found my students to be obsessed with, we will also be working on their reading comprehension skills and showing them that reading is fun!
