My Students

My students come from eight counties all across the Southern Crescent Region of metro-Atlanta. As kindergartners, they come in with various background experiences and are always ready to actively learn and do!

We are Mavericks, facing the future with the goal of changing the world.

In my classroom, my students are able to engage with real-world issues to discover how to think and bring about change through specifically designed learning experiences. Our project-based learning model allows the students to learn through many hands-on activities (we learn best by doing!) and to apply their learning in real-world experiences. The best part about my position is that I am able to help students wonder about the world around them. As they dream, students will be able to actively create products that attempt to solve problems that they have identified.

My Project

My students love to use their senses to learn through math and science. These materials will be used in small group settings to allow students to extend their learning through hands-on activities. Seeing their science come alive and manipulating and matching facts about animals will enhance their science learning in a concrete way.

These instant learning centers will allow them to move their math and manipulate items to make their learning concrete and fun!

They love to be able to do activities not just at a table, but laying on the floor as well. These centers are ideal to set up in different environments.
