My Students

My students are creative, thoughtful, and full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically.

Each child in my classroom absolutely loves learning, although the methods and environments in which they learn best vary​ greatly.

We incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work, and alternative seating and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are! They are truly an incredible group, and I am so lucky and thankful to have a new group of learners who are excited and ready to learn each year!

My Project

Hands-on learning naturally engages and encourages kids to want to learn and step out and think creatively. Having materials for students is essential.

We will be using the giant paper for our writing, the math machines to help us become more fluent, and our Jeopardy light with help us review all year long and to make review days engaging.

These materials will be used for hands-on learning during centers, providing materials needed to enhance our curriculum in math and literacy. Students will be able to use these materials when working individually or in small groups. These resources will bring what is in their hands into their minds. Hands-on visual learning is the key to my students' success.

All this learning leads to kids wanting to share and teach others. This is why it is so important for me to get these materials in the hands of my students. This project will support the hands-on learning about all things math and literacy and prepare them for their future.
