My Students

“An investment in knowledge pays the best interest" ~Benjamin Franklin

My students are inquisitive, creative, and always eager to learn.

We use a variety of hands-on, engaging activities to make all lessons fun and encourage thinking outside the box. I don’t have a perfect classroom, but my students strive to be the best daily; they help each other to achieve, aspire, and to be more. My students are always excited to learn new things and every one of them works together as a team. Some of their families are still recovering from Hurricane Harvey, which hit our community hard.

My Project

We are excited to be back in school learning after COVID. These materials will help us to be successful this school year. The headphones will help make the use of technology in our class effective and aid differentiation. COVID has emphasized the importance of technology in the classroom and beyond. The headsets will ensure we continue using our technology to maximize learning.

The math posters will be on the wall in our classroom and help students remember concepts taught in class.

The clipboard, markers, highlighters and pencils will ensure that all students have supplies and are able to complete their assignments in class.

The teacher planner is to plan, organize lessons effectively.

We appreciate all donations to our project. We look forward to receiving these resources and using them to effect progress in our learning.

Thank you as you give to our project.
