My Students

My classroom is the perfect chaos. Students are collaborating, creating, and investigating to improve their skills and strategies. My students will be able to perfect all of these skills. "The true strength in our classroom lies in the collaboration of learners not in the knowledge of one expert."

My students come from a variety of backgrounds and also an assortment of learning styles.

They are eager to learn and ready to take on any challenge. If it has anything to do with getting our of their desk, technology, or a project, they love it. My students collaborate, think critically, investigate, and research. Our school and my classroom work with Project Based Learning, STEAM, and STEM activities. We allow our students to drive the instruction. They get hands-on activities and real life experiences. They are "Leaders Blooming Within" at our school.

My Project

These new chairs are just what we need to continue to be successful in our fourth grade classroom. They will help the students to have yet another seat in the classroom to help them stay focused and enjoying their learning the best they can. It will help to keep them active within the classroom, which keeps their brain moving and ready to learn! They will be able to spin, move the chair up or down based upon their height, and fidget while working. This will help them continue to be the best student they can be and strive in the classroom.
