My Students

I teach in a little country school that promotes a feeling of family. My father, my grandfather, and I actually attended this school in the same classrooms. My students are determined to succeed and our class motto is learn by having fun. Each week they get excited about the new adventures that I bring to our room. They appreciate every activity and look forward to learning in a nontraditional environment. We incorporate music, movement, games, and discovery into our daily class.

My Project

These books will help me create a print-rich classroom as I transition from a math teacher, with no books, to a reading teacher. My classroom library will be a place where my students can read independently, and with peers or myself. Students will be able to choose books that they are interested in so that they will actually enjoy reading. The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading. This project will help enrich their experiences with the printed word. We will take care of our new books and enjoy them for years to come.
