My Students

I teach in a rural, high poverty school district in Western NY. My students are creative, thoughtful and full of inquiry! They embrace hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to create and find solutions.

In our classroom we offer a variety of learning strategies, opportunities for collaboration and flexible seating to meet the needs of every student.

My awesome first graders come to school each day eager to try new things, discover and grow!

My Project

Our ELA block consists of whole group instruction and small group instruction where students rotate through three centers. One of the centers is an independent word work station where students work on the phonics skill of the week.

Word work is super important because it helps patterns and words move into long term memory.

Word work also helps students become better readers, spellers, and writers. These materials would provide my students with engaging, hands-on activities to complete. Students will be utilizing building bricks (Legos) to build words, stamping out words, and writing words/sentences on awesome Scribble Slates!
