My Students

“You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.”

-Maya Angelou

My students are enthusiastic learners with a ton of potential, but we need resources to expand our thinking!

We are an 89% economically disadvantaged campus with limited exposure to experiences to help my students develop into who they can become. The goal of every teacher is to create a learning environment that makes a student feel safe, inspired and capable. These basic supplies will allow me to create some new learning opportunities in the classroom.

My Project

My students are an extremely creative bunch that love to be engaged in an activity and take it to the next level. One goal of mine is to create an environment that allows their creativity to shine while keeping their focus on the task at hand.

Having exercise balls in the classroom will allow those students that need to move constantly to remain in one spot and still be productive.

Quality supplies such as, Ticonderoga Pencils, modeling clay and dry erase pockets and pens, take activities to the next level of excitement for students. I am excited for this opportunity.
