My Students

As an elementary teacher, I lay the foundation of learning and encourage my students to explore and wonder. What makes my students special is their curiosity, positivity, and love.

A great education beings with an open mind and a full stomach.

At my school more then 76% of the student body recieves free/ reduced lunch. During weekends and holidays are school provides meals and food backpacks to take home. Most of my students face obstacles at home that are beyond their control. These struggles range from single family households to low income. But, everyday (as I greet them at the door), my students show up with smiles on their faces ready to learn.

My Project

Most of our schedule is focused on Reading and Math. While we do teach Science on Fridays, Science reading material is scarce or beyond my students reading and comprehension level. These materials will make a perfect addition to our classroom by providing my students with independent reading texts that are science based, nonfiction and on their reading levels.

Help me bring science education back through literacy.

Most of these books tie into our learning standards and can be used to extended our reading about the topic. My students love learning about animals and we can use these little readers in our science center, research center, and small group discussions.
