My Students

My students are AWESOME! They are creative, thoughtful, and always full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges! They love to share their ideas and take multiple pathways to find solutions! My kiddos are eager to learn new things and take risks in order to grow, both academically and socially.

It's a pleasure to be able to spend my days with such amazing children.

They always seem to try their best despite the many challenges they face in school and at home. I work in an extremely urban school district with very large class sizes ranging between 25-32 students year after year. Our district has been suffering from devastating budget cuts. Every September, teachers are asked to do more with less. Our district is fully remote, 2020-2021.

Many of my students are English Language Learners or are on Individualized Education Plans. My goal is to differentiate instruction to the best of my ability. In my classroom, all students get what they need. My main goal is to teach from the heart and make our classroom feel like home. Teachers who love teaching, teach children to love learning. That's me!

My Project

As a fourth grade classroom teacher working remotely, I use Generation Genius in my science lessons. My students absolutely love the video lessons. I love the vocabulary and comprehension questions.

The videos are made in a fun and interesting way that keep my students engaged.

The 10-minute episodes are packed with useful information. The children actually beg to watch the videos!

We have replicated several of the hands-on science experiments. Generation Genius is a wonderful program.

Unfortunately, my free trial membership is running out. Please help me to purchase a classroom subscription. Thank you.
