My Students

"YES! I DID IT!" Those words are music to my ears when it comes to students learning. The fact that they put all their effort into one task and they were able to achieve that is the BEST part of teaching.

My students are my kids, and I treat them as that.

They are loved and disciplined at the same time while being taught. I hear the excitement in their voices as they grasp different concepts, and to hear the laughter in the room as they are collaborating makes my heart smile!

I wish I could provide everything my students need to be successful in my classroom but sadly, I can't! But what I do know, is that there are amazing people out there willing to help educators get the resources they need and for that I say thank you!

My Project

This project will help students unleash their creative capabilities in my 1st grade classroom! We have adopted the A+ program which is an art integration program! Students will be exposed to all the area of arts in general education classrooms! Students will be learning about animal habitats and then creating that habitat in an artistic way like building their habitat out of modeling clay, or creating a watercolor image with the brush watercolor short handle brushes! For this to be possible my students need a LOT of materials like the school smart modeling clay, pipe cleaners, and modeling clay! With your support the students in my class can create masterpieces that show what they have learned! Thank you so much for considering this project!
