Growing up, I was always told to shoot for the moon. Even if I missed, I would land among the stars. These stars that I landed among are the 20 smiling faces that I am blessed to work with in my classroom each day. Not only are they learning the things embedded in our math, science, literacy, and social studies curriculum, they are learning about character. They are connecting to our community and helping in any way that they can. I use their ideas to inspire our projects. This year, after learning about needs and wants, we donated food to a local shelter. After reading a story about how animals help people, we donated pet food to the animal shelter. These were all ideas that my students came up with. My students are fantastic role models for their peers, our school, and adults alike. They are my inspiration and hope for our future.
