My Students

I teach first grade in the heart of Chicago. The students in my class are from all over the world and have a passion for learning. My students are caring, respectful of one another, and energetic. My students are a group of eager learners, always wanting to research and know more.

My students are caring, respectful of one another, and energetic.

They are open minded, and they accept all points of view.

They are one loving group of kids and I look forward to seeing their smiling faces everyday!

My Project

We are very fortunate to have one to one iPads in our classroom that we use each day. We use them for a variety of purposes. We have individualized programs that adapt to our ability levels, tools we use for math like linking cubes and interactive white boards, and we even are learning to code. While our iPads are in good shape, we need cases to protect them so that they stay in good shape. Although the first graders are very responsible, we still need to protect our iPads, because accidents might happen.
