My students need a digital and print library, and resources for an integrated, multi-sensory E.L.A., Math, Social Studies/History and Science/Engineering Curriculum! What is your fondest memory of school? My hopes and dreams are for ALL my students to remember wanting to come to school ready to learn each day, knowing that they were cared for, trusted,…

Mrs. Cimini is happy to announce that her Donorschoose We’ve Got the Right Stuff Project was fully funded! Many thanks to all who made this possible… Happy dance! Joy! Tears! Elation!
These are just a few of the ways I’m feeling at this very moment! This project has proved to me that one can set a goal, an attainable goal and with perseverance and effort, it can be reached! It was hard at first wondering how I was going to reach the audience I needed to help me navigate this process, but with thought and with trying different avenues, I was able to reach the people I needed to reach.
I hope to share my experience with others and hope to inspire them to set a goal and to not give up! Trust the process!
The materials I have selected will reach each child on an individual and group level. They will make connections to the world around them and create projects and learning resources that will tie together their knowledge and passions in an authentic, personal way.
Thank you so much!
Love and Respect Always…xoxoxo
With gratitude,
Mrs. Cimini

I have been discussing reading and writing almost every day these past few weeks preparing for my new job as a 7th grade English teacher.  I haven’t minded one bit either.  It seems if I am not discussing it, I am thinking about it, and that tends to lead to a blog post or five to get my own thoughts straight.  I started to realize that there are little tweaks that I have been using the past few years to make our conversations deeper and to make it run a bit smoother, couple that with new ideas thanks to my amazing PLN, and I am feeling pretty good about the start of school September 2nd.

So if you want students to actually read…

  • Give them reading time in class, even in middle and high school.  We cannot control what students do outside of our rooms but we…
