My Students

My students come from diverse backgrounds and that provides us with wonderful learning opportunities. Some of my students have special needs, and others are gifted learners. We also have children from military families, as well as some who speak English as a Second Language or English Language Learners (ESL/ELL). We are very fortunate to have such a beautifully diverse classroom community.

Although our school is faced with an increasing number of students from low-income families, my students are highly motivated to solve problems and make the world a better place.

My students are the scientists, artists, engineers, and mathematicians of the future. They care about others and want to make a difference in the world. I can't wait to see the amazing things they accomplish in their lives!

My Project

My students will use this locking tool cabinet to store their science materials. This unit locks, so materials will be secure when they are not in use. When students need their materials, they will be easily accessible, helping them to learn to work efficiently. Since the cabinet is on wheels, it can be easily moved to different parts of the room. This will make it easier for students to work on their projects without having to continuously walk back and forth across the room to get materials. This will help them stay focused on their work and reduce stress when working in teams. This cabinet will help my students get the most out of their learning tasks and help them focus on innovative problem-solving during their STEAM challenges.
