What can your students look forward to this year?
Fun Friday Centers! centers build independence and helps build social skills with their peers. Students will also look forward to being introduce to more technology platforms in my classroom since I have a strong background in technology from my masters.
What is unique or interesting about your class?
The technology we use. I love looking for new and exciting games that review our first grade skills and topics. They can also look forward to buddy reading and bi-weekly science experiments. We just finished making a volcano by mixing vinegar and baking soda.

More blending of your letter sounds! Working in small groups more!
