Pataskala, OH Grades 3-5

I teach below average 2nd and 3rd grade reading groups. I am trying to get my students to be life long learners and have successful careers in the future.

I currently do not have any student computers in my classroom. Students love to send emails, research and learn to read on the computer. It is a great way to motivate students to read and be life long learners!

Students need to learn how to use a computer at an early age. Computers in my classroom will be used by students daily to talk to students across the country and to read books online.

You will be the one to help my students become computer savvy. Please help motivate my students to love learning and reading through the use of technology!
