My Students

My students login online to class every day incredibly eager to learn and absorb information that they've never known before! My students are proud members of our classroom and school community. They take pride in their learning and do their best every day.

I teach a diverse group of second graders in California with a wide range of interests and learning styles!

In our virtual classroom, we try to be kind and empathetic citizens that positively affect the lives of themselves and others.

My Project

Distance Learning. Need I say more? We need more tangible books that my students can hold and turn the pages of.

We have been spending so much time staring at screens since the pandemic started, and we would love to encourage learning to happen off-screen whenever possible.

The gift card to TeachersPayTeachers.com will allow me to find teacher-created resources made specifically for 2nd graders that my students will enjoy. We're trying to make the learning we do as enjoyable as possible during this time. Please help us achieve that with this project!
