My Students

Our elementary school is full of charismatic 4th grade students who are eager learners from diverse backgrounds. We are focused on the development of our students manners, respect, and responsibility. Our 4th graders are from the heart of Henderson, Nevada and they are between the ages of 9 and 11 years old.

Our students enjoy exploring various concepts through hands on activities.

They are enthusiastic about new concepts and ideas in the classroom, we as teachers are always looking for new ways to motivate and inspire our kids, and encourage them to push themselves beyond their perceived ability.

My Project

My students deserve a classroom that is organized and ready for all the hard work they will complete on a daily basis without worrying about needing anything to accomplish that goal. In our classroom, my students will use these requested items to help organize and replenish some much needed supplies to our classroom.

Being able to organize our supplies makes it easier to work without interruption or distraction.

The ability to put supplies out on shelves in slide out baskets will make it easier for my students to access the supplies they need, when they need them. I want my students to have easy access to all the available materials they need to work successfully in our classroom.

I am excited to keep extra pencils, sticky notes, pens and paper organized for my kids. These supplies are used everyday throughout our math lessons to practice problem solving skills and to take notes about our daily skills. Students will be able to access these useful materials with having to interrupt a lesson or their daily work to ask for them.
