My Students

This group of students brings out the best in me. All negativity slips away as my students walk by in the morning and say, "Good Morning!" The class is so respectful and is always excited and willing to work together and have amazing experiences with each other and with their teacher.

When it comes to work, my kids are hard working and want to be involved in so many ways that they can.

My students are authors, writers, comedians, therapists, artists, geniuses, and friends. They are an emotionally rewarding group of students. They love doing projects and working together. ESPECIALLY if they are competing. Their hard working attitude and motivation gets them through their work and makes me have my moments where I realize, this is exactly what I am supposed to be doing.

My Project

Students will have the opportunity to learn using their hands. My students work well in groups with and learn visually! STEM time is so important for my students. Given lack of materials, it has been difficult in giving the students a full learning experience.

STEM is such an important, hands on experience and my students deserve to experience it to the fullest potential.

My little adventurers are ready for some new experiences.

With these materials, my students can learn about the solar system and prepare properly for their Challenger Learning Center field trip. They can discover new things without just looking at the screen of an iPad.
