My Students

Fourth graders rock! They are learning so many new things, becoming more engaged, and making those deeper connections with their curriculum. Inquiry-based learning and hands-on activities are what's going on with the fourth graders in this classroom. They are eager to learn and love learning with those hands-on experiences.

I teach two sections of fourth graders, I have them both for math and science.

Each group is unique in the way they learn. Using all types of different manipulatives and seating options in class will help us become better thinkers.

My Project

My current intermediate building will be combining with our elementary building starting in August. I would like to give my students a state-of-the-art classroom. One of the things I would really like to do is get rid of my large clunky teacher's desk. This desk would allow me to take up a smaller overall space in our class. It would allow the student more room for their differentiated seating that we use. It would also allow me to write when I am helping my students with math problems because you can write on it!
