My Students

My students are sweet, energetic kids who are eager to learn. We are from a small town in Louisiana where, like most, funds are limited. Our school only has 4th and 5th grade students. Our students come to us from two different feeder schools in our area, giving us a very diverse student population. Our school was built in 1959 and is composed of 50% economically disadvantaged students. It is located within a military community, giving us the opportunity to enrich many different lives.

My students have goals, dreams, and aspirations for this school year.

I know that they can accomplish anything. They are preparing to be successful in a technology driven society. I hope to unlock the potential in each and every one of my students!

My Project

Living in the south, we have a lot of days where students get stuck inside for recess- sometimes for days at a time. When it rains, it usually does so for several days and students are trapped in the classroom for their recess. If it is too hot or too cold, they are also stuck inside.

My students need engaging, mind challenging activities to play with during inside recess.

These games and challenges will give them a fun way to interact with classmates and learn valuable life skills such as taking turns and patience. Students get bored with doing the same "indoor" videos, reading, and drawing. These activities will challenge them, teach them, and let them have valuable fun!
