My Students

I have a class full of amazing students who are excited about learning. They are self-motivated, goal-driven, and always eager to learn. They are extremely motivated in using technology in the classroom to further their learning.

I work diligently to create a positive, engaging classroom, where every student can be successful, no matter their individual struggles.

My goal of being a teacher is to help every student be successful in the classroom.

My students are eager learners and work hard to obtain their goals in the classroom. I have students that live in all different types of family units with varying economic statuses.

My Project

We are getting ready to start our unit on living things, specifically plants and animals. Part of our core is to learn about how plants and animals grow and what features they have will help them survive. Who doesn't love to see science in action? That is what this project is all about!

This year has been rough, but I would love to bring a little more joy and excitement to learning as we study real plants and animals in the classroom.

My students will love seeing eggs hatching into baby chicks! They be so excited to hatch chicks! This would be fun project that will allow the learning to make a long-lasting impact!

My students have worked so hard this year. They do best when learning is visual and hands-on. This would be a great project that does both. My plan is to use these materials and integrate them in other subjects for many years, making this a real-world experience they will never forget!
