My Students

Nexus 7 is a device that students can use daily. It is like an iPod but with a bigger screen and more opportunities. Students can use it to work on projects as a group, do research, create presentations, read, write, type, draw, present, translate, listen to rich vocabulary, navigate through the Earth, take pictures, and more.

It is my joy to work with a variety of students from different countries.

The ages vary from K-grade 4. My students are fascinated by quality technology and hands-on experiences using the touch screen and the ability to listen to the engaging stories about our world. They are hard workers who want to succeed in a fast-paced learning environment. Their dreams are to go to college, work and be productive members of our society!

My Project

My students need a Nexus tablet. Your support will help students experience hands-on learning, listening to books, reading engaging texts, typing stories and enriching their vocabulary. This device is like the World at your fingertips with a camera for science observations, dictionary for learning new words, and translator. Thank you!

This project will allow students to create fascinating presentations for their peers and to learn from engaging applications that let them explore the world in its beauty.

This project will have endless opportunities for my classroom of learners, since it has a variety of resources built in it. Thank you.
