My Project

My students at WEIS are truly special in so many ways. They come from a rich cultural background, and they bring such a unique energy to the classroom. They are creative, resilient, and eager to learn, despite any challenges they may face. I see their curiosity every day as they ask questions, collaborate with each other, and explore new ideas. Each one of them has the potential to shine in their own way, and with the right tools and support, they can achieve even more.

Having more drawing boards and dry erase markers would make such a difference for them.

These tools would allow for more hands-on learning, which is especially important in science. Students could visualize their ideas, sketch diagrams, and work out problems in real-time. It would also encourage more collaboration, as they could easily share their thoughts with the class or in small groups. Being able to express their ideas visually would help students who might struggle with traditional methods of learning or those who are more creatively inclined. Plus, the ability to easily erase and try again fosters an environment where mistakes are part of learning, not something to be feared.

Additionally, recognizing each student on their birthday with a small present would go a long way in making them feel valued and special. Birthdays can be a time to remind students that they are an important part of our classroom community, which can boost their self-esteem and motivation. Something as simple as a small gift can show them that their presence is appreciated and celebrated. It’s about building positive relationships and creating an environment where students feel loved and supported, which ultimately leads to better learning outcomes.
