My Students

My students are creative, thoughtful and very curious! They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically.

Each child in my classroom absolutely loves learning, although the method and environment in which they learn best vary greatly.

We incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work, and alternative seating and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are! They are truly an incredible group, and I am so lucky and thankful to have a new group of learners that are excited and ready to learn each year!

My Project

My students will use the book “Fish in a Tree” to help them understand ELA standards along with integrating S.T.E.A.M. In order to complete a novel study, each child will need a copy of the book. This will help with management and making sure each student is engaged in learning. As the teacher, I will be able to reach each student individually and respond to their needs as learners.

This class set will allow the students to complete a novel study and help grow their love of reading.

My students will take ownership of their learning while collaborating with their classmates. Throughout the novel, we will complete S.T.E.A.M. activities and make connections to real-life situations.
