My Students

Eagerness, dedication, and commitment to learning are qualities that come to mind when I think about my third-grade superheroes. I've seen these little, awesome people transform into a family right before my eyes. They are loving, caring, and hilarious!

All of my students are from low-income homes and are on the free lunch program.

Some of them come from single-parent households. Despite these disadvantages, their thirst for knowledge has never swayed. Through their commitment to becoming the best students they can become, they have quickly moved into a special place in my heart.

My Project

The materials that I've requested will help my students advance their academic learning and overall well-being in light of the COVID-19 Pandemic. The lamination sheets and plastic sheets will be used to keep my students engaged with durable handouts.

The days of students sharing papers are in the past.

We must protect the students, but within this need for protection, we must continue to provide them high quality engaging activities. The boogie boards will also create dynamic learning environments by allowing them to engage with learning materials with devices that will maximize their learning. The batteries will be used for their very own Hot Dot pen, which will give them real time feedback on the skills they are currently learning. The ink will give them various learning activities that will draw their attention to colors and details to interests the visual and kinesthetic learners. All materials will help bridge the gap and move my students from COVID-19 regression to Academic Success.
