My Students

My second grade classroom is a place of friendship, challenge, and discovery. These kiddos are full of energy, creativity, and so much imagination! They enter our building each day ready to explore and to share their love of learning with those around them.

These kiddos love a great read aloud, and enjoy hands on learning, and movement throughout the classroom.

I am extremely proud to be teaching this group of future leaders, entrepreneurs, scientists, teachers... they are our future! Thank you in advance for your support of our classroom!

My Project

The materials and supplies that I am requesting will better help my students during their writing time. As students are writing during their writer's workshop time, I want them to be focused on developing their writing organization. Through using these writing process folders, my students will be able to track their writing throughout the writing process by organizing their writing by step.

In addition I have requested The Writing Strategies book by Jennifer Serravallo (my absolute favorite teacher-author) in order to better train myself to teach writing to my students.

Thank you for your support of the writers in my classroom!
