My Students

In my classroom, it is my priority to build strong, trusting relationships with each one of my kiddos while guiding them to fulfill their full potential. As an educator, I aspire to create a classroom community that is respectful of all students, where each child feels unconditionally loved, cared for, and part of a family. I believe that students should be in a stimulating educational environment, where each child feels heard and part of our community.

As I prepare for hybrid learning, I want to make sure my students feel safe and welcomed in my classroom, so we can build a strong community together that celebrates curiosity, discovery, and creativity.

My school serves over 220 K-3rd graders. In the next few years, we will expand to 5th grade. I teach 26 first graders in my classroom from the San Diego area. As a first-grade teacher, I work tirelessly to embrace all learning styles and abilities to ensure the development of lifelong learning skills.

My Project

As my class prepares for in-person learning, I want to ensure that my students have a safe learning environment! I want to make our learning environment flexible where we can move outdoors to learn. The easels, pad paper, and organization materials are all necessary to help protect and provide flexible, socially-distance learning to my students.

While this year has been unprecedented, with your support, I can create a consistent, safe and welcoming home for my students at school.

I want my students to know that learning can happen anywhere, whether outdoors or in the classroom, and that learning can be fun and exciting!
