Mrs. Orellana’s Classroom Edit display name

My students' educational opportunities can only be attained through public education. Eighty-three percent of the students at our school come from low income families who can only provide the necessary for survival such as food and clothing. In addition, our school lacks the resources that will aid in preparing college ready students who can compete with students of their same age. In addition, the teachers at our school find that every classroom has students who are at the same grade level but not on the same readiness levels. Some find themselves in middle school but are at the third grade level, while others are in the same grade band and are ready for higher levels. With such differing learning levels, my students benefit best from differentiated instruction that is tailored to their educational needs. The incorporation of technology into my lessons will help me target such differing readiness levels by giving me access to resources that are currently unavailable at our school.
