My Project

I love bringing experiences to my students that will engage their learning in a different way. I think all my students are so special and value the family that we have created in our library.

Providing a variety of resources, students will be allowed to tap into a variety of learning styles.

I have created monthly transformations and lessons to keep students engaged and excited about their visit to the library. In the near future we will be learning about the human body and getting outside through a variety of activities.

For my upper grade students, we are turning our focus on kindness and doing good for others. There is a need for increased awareness in others and serving those in need. When I turned the focus to kindness in the past, I noticed an increase in positivity throughout school.
