My Students

I have 20 amazing students this year! They are responsible and respectful. They are always eager to learn. My students are bundles of energy who love to read! They come to school with a positive attitude each morning. They are hopeful to have an enriching day.

My students show great perseverance when presented with a challenge.

My students are team players, they help one another when needed. My students are confident problem solvers. They deserve the best education I can provide.

My Project

I have read "Mouse and the Motorcycle" with my students for many years now. They just love it! The copies I use are from the library and they are showing their age. The set is mismatched - which makes it difficult to turn to the same page.

Ralph is an inspiration to my students!

Ralph teaches my students how to be brave - when he must help his human friend get an aspirin tablet. Ralph teaches my students to be kind - when he allows his young nieces and nephews to ride his motorcycle.

Most of all, Ralph teaches my students to love to read!
