My Students

Our students are the very first students to go to our school. We just opened this year in portables while we wait for our permanent building to be complete.

The students that go to our school are all bright and hardworking kids.

They all come from different backgrounds and socioeconomic statuses. What makes our school and students so special is the love we all share for learning and the hard work we all put into teaching and giving our students the confidence and tools to learn and be successful in all aspects of life.

My Project

Language skills are so very important in each individuals life. Teachers have the opportunity to create an environment that helps students succeed in all aspects of their lives. With these items I will be able to create an experience for the students helping their language skills.

Students language skills have been severely impacted by COVID-19.

Being away from the classroom setting and away from peers has impacted children socially, emotionally, and physically. My hope is to create and encourage students to come together, work on language skills through play and creativity.
