My Students

I teach at a small, Title I, public school that has an awesome student body! Our school is in a rural setting with many migrant farm-working families, we are a low-income school with high expectations!

My students are so amazing and have so much potential, I want to do what I can to see them be super successful!

I am so excited to watch them grow and learn! My goal is to have every student ready for the next grade level and beyond when they leave my classroom. We work hard to instill values, encourage community, and create an environment where they feel safe and inspired! We learn something new everyday and my dream is that they will always remember the fun and unique content for years to come.

I am so honored to spend each day with these awesome children. I can't wait to see where they can go and what they can accomplish!

My Project

Written and developed by teachers for teachers, Teachers Pay Teachers is a great tool to find fun and engaging ways to teach students. I am requesting three Teachers Pay Teachers gift cards to help purchase grade-level resources and activities for my students. The resources available on Teachers Pay Teachers are engaging and fun!

They incorporate current state standards, include both formative and informative assessments that truly cover a broad subject matter.

These Teacher Pay Teacher gifts cards will greatly help with effective planning and will be highly beneficial for my students as it will give me access to many valuable resources.

The materials on Teachers Pay Teachers are creative, fun, they truly make it easy to differentiate work in the classroom.
