As a teacher in Baltimore, Maryland, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences.
They like to move, they enjoy problem solving, they love to read and they persevere through challenges.
They work hard and deserve the best education I can provide for them. My students are explorative and excited to learn about the world around them.
My Project
Remember how it felt to open a brand new book as a child? Or the feeling of attending the book fair and choosing a shiny cover? My third graders deserve that excitement too!
Our classroom library has been extremely loved over the past eight years.
We have been lucky enough to receive donations and hand-me-down books over the years and my students have enjoy them thoroughly. However, some of those books are beginning to fall apart and lose their luster. My students' interests have also changed over the years. I would like for my students to have new and complex texts that are aligned with their interests and goals.
