My Students

My class is a fun, outgoing, curious group of 8 and 9-year-olds. Each one of them has their unique strengths and differences. They love to learn, explore, use technology, and ask questions. Our goal is to encourage innovators, creators, and individuals that will change this world!

Each student in my class is unique and learns differently from the next.

I have an amazing group of students that are so excited to come to school. They come in each day with a smile and an attitude that is ready to learn!

My Project

In our classroom we have flexible seating and the students participate in a lot of hands on learning. I would love an Osmo to bring their learning to life! We would also like a wireless keyboard, mouse, remote, and desk pad so kids can become the teacher right at their seat!

Organization is the key to how our classroom runs smoothly.

Having a magnetic rod will help organize our anchor charts and magnetic numbers will help organize where students go for math stations. The sock organizer will hold our recording devices and headphones. The bamboo holder will organize our chromebooks and keep them charged so we can use them! The floating bookshelves will allow me to present the books we are reading in class and helps the kids find the books easier! The paper cutter allows for me to cut larger pieces of paper. Many of our projects I have to cut by hand because our cutter is too small. I would love to be able to cut straight lines with large pieces of paper!

The ipad case will help keep one of our ipads safe! We have worn out our cases and I am hoping to replace one to keep it from getting broken!
