My Project

Each student is unique in their own way. In my classroom, I encourage my students to create, present, and work together as a team! I want my classroom to be a place where they can comfortably learn in a safe and exciting environment.

My classroom is comprised of 5th and 6th-grade hard-working students, many of whom come from a variety of different backgrounds.

I encourage my students to bring their creative minds into our classroom every day but to do so, we need basic classroom supplies! Watercolor paint sets, adhesive products, new chairs for comfort, highlighters, paint markers, and pencil sharpeners are just some of the essentials my students will need to take a hands-on approach to learning and allow them to demonstrate their learning in a different way through art and their own creative ideas. We will use these materials to create and complete their upcoming projects for this school year. The sky is the limit with the right materials at hand.
