My Students

I love my students! The students in my class are kind, curious, and possess the drive and desire to do their personal best. They work hard every single day! In my class, we value respect, hard work, and a strong sense of family. We are a family in my classroom.

My students are amazing and unique in their own way.

My goal is to teach them the skills necessary to become successful in every avenue of their lives from this day forward while smiling, laughing, and learning. We are diverse and excited and ready to learn. This group of amazing third graders is ready to keep growing and thriving.

My Project

STEM is an area of learning that should be fun, relatable and accessible to all!

I want to use inspirational books and stories as well as STEM materials to encourage them to dream big and explore all that is possible for their future careers.

These books will introduce all of my students to STEM careers that are available to them all. I want them to explore new ideas and create new things. I want to use the space models and books to engage them in STEM fields like science and space exploration. I want them to stretch their imagination beyond what they know. The figures to inspire them to dream big. I would like to foster a sense of curiosity and a strong foundation in STEM so that they can develop a love and passion for the different fields in STEM. I want to them to know that with dedication and perseverance that they too can have a dream to work in science, math, and even engineering. I want to inspire my students to go beyond and not limit themselves when it comes to their future.
