My Students

Fourth grade is such an exciting grade level to teach because the students are beginning to notice things happening around them and become curious about topics that we can really dive into discussing in class. My students are representative of a wide range of experiences, backgrounds, and abilities that inspire me to continue exploring ways to creatively help them become their best selves. My students keep things interesting and pose new opportunities for me to become a better person and educator daily.

Our school is a safe haven for a lot of our students.

Many of them come from low-income backgrounds and some struggle to bring necessary school supplies each year. Their grit and determination to overcome inspire me daily. My goal is to continue to present them with the opportunities and the knowledge to continue to overcome barriers that present themselves in their lives long after they've left my classroom.

My Project

Our district currently determined that a hybrid model of learning will be how we return to school in August. While I am excited for the opportunity to be back with my students, there is going to be a lot of learning going on for all of us as we navigate this new system of education. For the past two years, my talented teammate and I have departmentalized. I teach ELA and Social Studies, while she teaches Math and Science. This system works well for us, but poses some issues with social distancing guidelines. Instead of children switching classrooms, teachers will be switching classrooms. I have included a cart for materials and projector stand for my laptop on my list to make this transition efficient. Students will also not be able to use community supplies, which is why I have chosen to provide them with their own storage boxes for supplies.

I love being able to illustrate concepts in ELA and Social Studies through read alouds.

These stories create opportunities for rich conversations and my fourth graders still love to be read to. I have included many culturally diverse read alouds on this list in an effort to expand the experiences and perspectives my students are exposed to and to spark those important conversations. Our state and district will provide hand sanitizer, but I have chosen to include it on my list, because as all teachers know, you can really never have enough!
