My Students

I teach talented and gifted 5th grade. My students are super bright and LOVE to read. They work hard to learn. They are obsessed with gathering new knowledge. They love to be in school and work on projects.

All of the 5th grade classes in my school are super collaborative, and we love to do things together.

Kids always rise to the occasion. They are all capable of producing great work. If they could choose to do anything all day long, they would read. They get lost in their books!

My Project

My students and the entire 5th grade at our school love to read, and they love to read new and current books. We try our very best to expose them to every kind of story that is appropriate and would love nothing more than to incorporate new titles into their choices.

We are five classes that will share these titles and I can guarantee that they will be put to use.

Students in our classes like to relate to stories and current happenings. Having literature in our rooms that is current 100% allows us to help them do this and gain a love for reading at the same time.
