My Students
My students are creative, thoughtful and full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically.
Each child in my classroom absolutely loves learning, although the methods and environments in which they learn best vary greatly.
We incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work and alternative seating and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are! They are truly an incredible group, and I am so lucky and thankful to have a new group of learners who are excited and ready to learn each year!
My Project
With these books, I will share examples of kindness and compassion towards everyone and acceptance of all people with my students. It is my hope and intention that my students will become models of kindness and compassion at our school and will spread kindness and compassion everywhere they go!
In addition to creating a community of kindness through literature, my students will be working on improving their comprehension, language, writing, and speaking skills.
We will be discussing how simple, small acts of kindness and compassion can make a huge difference in someone else's life. We will be reading the books I have requested, and discussing how we can all become kinder and more compassionate citizens.
