My Students

What I love most about my students is their hearts. No matter what kind of day I am having, I know I can always count on them to make my day and remind me why I do what I do. I am so thankful to be able to continue teaching. This year, I was given the opportunity to start at a new school and since day one, I have felt loved and accepted. My students deserve the very best and I intend on doing my very best for them in all that I do.

My Project

Most of our day is spent on the floor. Carpet time is implemented to keep students close and encourage learning by being a part of the lesson and conversation. It is important that students have a comfy spot to sit and that there is adequate space between children.

Getting a new classroom rug that will better suit my firsties will help foster learning and participation by minimizing the constant distractions we are currently facing with a rug that is far too small for six to seven year olds.
