My Project

I am so excited to post this project! My students mean the world to me and they are the reason I work so hard! What do I love about my students? I love how creative they are. How caring they are. How FUNNY they are; we often crack jokes with one another and still manage to finish the lesson for the day. They teach me what patience is and help me to balance work and play. For these things, I am forever grateful.

These items I have on my list would benefit our classroom space and also provide incentives for students to want to try in Spanish class.

I have included a hand vacuum to help with cleanliness. I am excited about the computer/water bottle stickers. They have memes in Spanish!!

For classroom instruction, I ordered a grammar and vocabulary book that will not only help ME and the students improve our written/reading skills, but it will increase our conversational skills. I will soon have students speak to native speakers and having great grammar will be a huge help in comprehension and confidence to speak in Spanish. My students and I will be eternally grateful.
