My Students

While things will look a lot different due to COVID-19, I am still extremely excited to teach my students. Kindergarten provides children the opportunity to grow and develop as learners. My students are young, eager, readers, writers, mathematicians, scientist and future leaders ready to take on not only kindergarten but the world!

As I continue to adjust to returning back to in-person learning, I cannot help but imagine the smiles on my students' faces when they walk into our classroom for the first time, and see a classroom filled with learning materials needed to help them succeed.

All of my students are from black/brown and or Hispanic backgrounds and majority come from low socioeconomic status households.

Despite the hardships many of my students face outside of our classroom, inside of our classroom ALL are welcome. We are a family and together we will over come obstacles and we will win!

My Project

This year for the first time, I will teach solely math and science. As a first year departmentalized teacher, please help me provide my students with different math and science learning materials.

Students deserve an opportunity to learn beyond textbooks.

Math and science is like magic but real. Math and science are all around us, it's a part of our everyday life and it should be a part of our classroom. My goal is to connect what we are learning in our textbooks with hands-on learning and experiments.

With the new math and science books, I will be able to create a library for my students. Students will be able to explore the different topics independently. With the learning materials, I will be able to create different learning centers and students will be able to use the materials to complete experiments. I am eager to provide The Mighty Math and Science Shoop Superstars with new learning materials!
