My Students

My students love to learn and they are also very creative, thoughtful and full of questions! They absolutely love 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 chances in order to grow both personally and academically. Truly, they are my inspiration!

My students focus on doing their best everyday and being lifelong learners.

We strive to make our brains stronger by learning as much as we can.

My Project

I am requesting Scholastic books to read everyday which will help to create educational equity by giving all students access to reading materials both at home and at school.

All students deserve to have access to books, regardless of their financial ability to purchase them.

These books will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy. I love to read on the carpet to them, and they love to read independently! Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunities to read.

All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind. I have watched them over the past few weeks of school read titles just like these, and I have also asked them what type of books they would enjoy reading. Students will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time. I am a firm believer that if a child loves to read, they will become lifelong learners.
