My Students

My students are everything you would expect from a group of 5th graders - they are enthusiastic, lovable, energetic, silly, and curious.

They want nothing more than to give me a hug each morning and ask me how fish survive a winter freeze and what would happen if one day the moon crashed into Earth.

Their faces light up whenever we do a science experiment, no matter how small.

Despite carrying the weight of problems from their homes each day, my students continue to come to school each day hungry to learn and eager to make their school a better place!

My Project

Our middle school is somewhat unique in that we begin with 5th grade. The transition for any student from elementary to middle school is challenging, but it is even more so for a 5th grader.

Our hallway is the first thing our students see each morning when they get to school, and we would like to make it more inviting and welcoming for our students.

These cork boards would give us a place to display student work outside each classroom, as well as highlight our students of the week, recognize our monthly good citizens, celebrate birthdays, and keep track of attendance and behavior rewards.

We want our students to feel known and appreciated for their hard work and for their hallway to be a place that is bright and inspiring.
