My Students

What makes my students so special? Wow, where do I even begin? This group is amazing! Not only do they take care of one another, but they go above and beyond to help each other learn. They never leave anyone behind.

Many times they are rushing to help another student with a problem before I can even make my way to their desk.

They show kindness to one and another every single day.

Not only are they passionate about their peers success in school, but they are passionate about school in general. These students beg to read! As a teacher, I could not ask for anything more than a love for school.

My Project

Our class library is one of our FAVORITE spots! My students love to read! I would like to make the library an even more desirable spot, while also adding more storage.

With this bench, students will be able to leave their desk space and find a more comfortable spot to work.

The storage space below, will allow us to add even more books to our library!

In my opinion, students are more motivated to read, if they can be comfortable. They are able to relax their bodies and truly focus on the book in their hands. I believe this bench will be the perfect addition to our classroom library!
