My Students

"Our school is committed to high academic standards and believes that learning is fun! As we prepare the “children of today for the world of tomorrow,” we strive to meet all the needs of our diverse student population through a gifted track, exceptional programming, remedial grouping, varied instructional methodology, data driven decision making, and the infusion of 21st-century skills, arts and technology. Teachers work together in an open spaced environment to create an exciting, integrated curriculum that supports both academic and social needs. Students are taught to be creative problem solvers, collaborative thinkers and caring individuals who will contribute to the community and world at large."-school vision statement

My first graders arrive each day excited for a new learning adventure!

Thier natural curiosity, positive attitudes, and endless energy are a teacher's dream class. Our school serves an ethnically diverse student population with 60% of students coming from low-income homes.

My Project

First graders love to share their thinking with classmates! This easel would allow students to show their learning with dry erase markers as we solve math problems, write stories, and record science observations. Students enjoy taking turns to be the "expert" and work on the whiteboard. Our classroom is an open space design. We do not have traditional walls with whiteboards or bulletin boards. The easel is the only interactive white board display space for our classroom.

Group activities using the easel support language development, social skills, and boost memory.

The adjustable height allows every student to clearly see the visual displays and the included clips can be used to display completed charts for future reference.
