My Project

This year, my students have been interested in reading novel studies. Specifically, the Wild Robot! My students have requested this book for months, and I would love to continue to nurture their love for reading. I am also asking for another novel study, Tornado. This book will help support our reading and science standards this year.

Continuing with science, we are growing seeds and would love to place them in a hydroponics unit to study their life cycles even further!

Lastly, because my students come from hardships, snacks are important to keep our brains happy and healthy. My students work hard and look forward to having a snack in class while they are working.
