My Project

All students do not learn the same. Creating a safe space for students to navigate their learning through different modalities will support them in being successful in their academic journey. These resources will support scholars to be self-regulated learners. It will build confidence and create opportunities for students to grow in many skill sets. Centers would come to life and zealous minds would be ripened through their exploration of the requested resources. My students will enjoy learning while having fun doing it with these resources. I'm sure their curious minds will yearn for more learning after engaging in these supports.
