My Students

My learners are encouraged to believe in themselves and maximize their own individual talents. My number one goal is to show each child that he or she is special, unique and loved. When children feel cared for more learning occurs. Each one of my students has a different background and story but they all deserve the best education and opportunities that I can provide for them! Roundtown is one of three K-3 buildings in Central York School District with a quarter of our students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. No matter what obstacles stand in our way we will approach them as a team!

My Project

VersaTiles allow for high quality independent skill practice by allowing the students to answering questions, select the answer on the VersaTile, and check their work by simply flipping over the VersaTiles. The VersaTiles make a pattern. If the pattern matches, they've answered the questions correctly. This helps to provide instant feedback to students so they can self-correct mistakes as needed. It's hard to find centers that make the most of students time. These VersaTiles are the answer. They provide screen less instruction that is aligned to our math standards. Please consider contributing these engaging VersaTiles to our classroom. Thank you!
