My Students

My students are eager to learn and have fun at the same time. My students are creative and enthusiastic. They work hard each day to not only learn, but create relationships and have fun throughout the day even in these crazy times.

My students work best when they are challenged and creating something.

We do our best to stay focused and work hard. The goal in my classroom is to be kind, have fun, and learn in the best way you can. We achieve this goal by doing our best and helping others.

My Project

With the switch back and forth between virtual and in-person learning, I need more resources to offer students that will work for us whether we are learning from home or from school. The resources purchased using these gift cards will help create a seamless move if we go virtual from our in-person learning.

Times are changing quickly, we must adapt with them.

While I will also use these gift cards for activities that we may only use in the classroom, many materials purchased will be used in the classroom digitally so they can continue normal school activities, even when learning from home. These activities will include reading, writing, math, social-emotional learning, grammar, phonics, and more! I can't wait to see the outcome of these new resources!
