My Students

My students are from a large, urban community that welcomes families from all over the globe. They bring a special blend of linguistic diversity, background knowledge, prior experiences, and culture to our school. We are a Title I school in a low-income community, and I have 28 students in my class. Free breakfast and free lunch are available to every child in our building each day.

I grew up in this city, and I truly believe I am meant to teach here and give back all I can to my hometown.

My school is a magical place. Despite the challenging home lives of many, my students walk in the door of our quaint little building and are welcomed with heartfelt greetings and genuine smiles, and they are ready to be the best they can be.

Our staff provides specific academic, emotional, and behavioral support to students to meet their specific needs so they can reach their personal potential. I am blessed to witness incredible student growth during each school year, a result of the dedication of my colleagues and the hard work of our students.

My Project

We are thrilled to adopt a brand new math program for our students and teachers. This transition will be challenging for teachers as they welcome students back for (hopefully) a more typical year of learning.

As their instructional coach, I want to give my teachers the tools to create an organized system of new math materials for students to use in years to come.

Brightly colored, labeled file folders will assist teachers to maintain an easy-to-manage system of creating and storing games, lessons, and other math supplies. The cardstock will give the games extra appeal to engage students and maximize their success.
