My Project

The group of children are a bunch of eager 1st graders who come to school daily ready to learn. My first grade blueberries are amazing. I teach at a Title I school in Decatur, Georgia. All students receive free breakfast and lunch.

Within my classroom, my students come from a variety of families that have different situations and income levels.

As a teacher, it is my job to create a fun and loving environment for my students. I love to expose them to new things that they do not often get a chance to embrace.

Celebrating Read Across America will help my scholars with their love for reading and provide incentives at the same time. Rewarding them Dr. Seuss pencils, notepads, erasers, top hats, stamps, and more will make Read Across America Week grand!
