My Project

I teach wonderful third-graders at a public charter school in a rural area of Utah. My class is a mix of boys and girls who come from a variety of socioeconomic backgrounds. My students may come from varied backgrounds but all have several things in common. By helping me get a classroom rug you would be providing a place for the students to be read to, to sit while getting math instruction, and for small group instruction during ELA and Math. They are hard workers, adventurous, intelligent, funny and so curious about the world around us! They make every day a fun adventure! They are the reason I love teaching and love coming to school each day. They deserve the world, and I love to give it to them!
