My Students

My students are awesome! They love learning and reading great books. They love giving hugs and using encouraging words to help each other.

If a task is difficult, they will work with any of their classmates to help them out.

They are respectful of adults and very helpful if adults need assistance in our building.

They love working with our younger scholars. They play and read to them and help them when they are sad. When they are lost or need to visit a part of our building that is unknown, they will talk to them and take them to that destination.

Most of all, they have taken on the role of leaders in the school. They take care of the school community by making sure it is clean, encourages recycling and give words of encouragement and high fives to our younger scholars.

My Project

We need Lakeshore headphones to listen to books online, articles, speeches, and poems.

It is important that students have sturdy headphones that will last most of the year so that they can enjoy books online as well as articles.

Headphones help enhance the learning experience. Students can interact with the text by having it read to them. They can listen to famous speeches and poems read by authors. In addition, headphones allow students to watch and listen to videos about historical events or subject matter that they have an interest in. It gives students another way to access information and explore/learn about their world both past and present.

Headphones in the classroom allow everyone to select the personalized learning experience that is best for them, they can work at their own pace and not disturb anyone around them.
