My Project

"Before anything else, preparation is the key to success" ~ Alexander Graham Bell. As we embark on another school year it is my goal that all my students will have the tools needed for learning. Creating the inclusive classroom means simply catering to all learning needs in the classroom and this will be done by using the stationery and stem kits that I have placed in my cart.

My students are great students and I look forward to working with them this year on becoming that wholistic individual and by putting their best foot forward.

I plan to use my carpet to have a lot of interactive discussions with my students with concepts they may not fully understand and others they have but some reinforcement/review may be needed. We usually have a shortage of pencils in the classroom and for that reason I have placed pencils here so that we do not have that issue in the coming year. All students can and will be on task and on time with their work being of minimal distraction to their peers.

Thank you for all you do for my students and me and I know with your help this year will be as stated in my title filled with exciting possibilities.
