My Students
Our classroom is an open and inviting environment designed to foster independent student learning. My students are thirsty for new materials to continue their education.
I teach in a public urban multi-age Montessori school with twenty eight first through third grade students.
My students learn though small group and individual lessons, research and inquiry, and by going out in to our community. My students come from all different backgrounds racially and socioeconomically and live in an urban setting.
My students are involved in social justice and environmental conscious movements taking a stand and trying to better the world. Our students work hard with the resources they have to follow their passions and find meaning in their education.
My Project
Children come to the classroom each day with a thirst for knowledge that we must take advantage of and foster.
Research and inquiry are an essential part of the Montessori classroom, so it is necessary to have reference materials the child can access.
When children are able to independently access exciting, inviting materials their possibilities are endless. These reference materials will give children a great starting point for their research. Whether looking up a specific topic they have in mind, or browsing for inspiration, images and words that are accessible for students are necessary. As students are growing in their writing, the dictionary and thesaurus will allow the students to access a wider vocabulary.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
