My Students

Students deserve the best! These students are our future! They need to have every opportunity possible to get the best possible education!

Lets face it.

Students these days have electronics practically glued to them. Why not take advantage of these technology natives and get on board with technology. As a young teacher, I understand the importance and usefulness of technology. These students know how to use these gadgets and will love being able to have the world literally at their fingertips! Not all students come from the same backgrounds and giving all of them the best possible education is what every educators goal should be.

My Project

My students need a Sony Tablet to allow them to access the Internet to research and create projects for our class. These students will be able to access the Internet to do research from anywhere! There are apps that are incredible in helping students learn and practice concepts that are taught in the classroom. Students will also be able to create and present projects using technology which will only increase their enthusiasm for learning!

There are many different, valid, and important charities.

Many are extremely good at helping others, after all that is the point of giving to charity. These students, will be our future. These students will be the ones making the important decisions when they grow up. We owe them the best education to prepare them in the best possible way. By allowing them access to these devices will not only increase what they can learn, but will also make learning much more fun and desirable!
