My Students

My students are amazing! I work with special needs students that are in grades K-2. My students are everything that their IEP (individual learning plan) doesn't say about them. My students are exceptional and unique learners! My students excel in areas students labeled as above average don't. (Amazing Right?)

Most of my students already aren't given a fair chance.

My students are very mature and exposed to a lot. My students come to class every day with a smile and joy in their hearts. These students work very hard to reach goals that may be small to most. My students are excited about learning and more excited about being loved, supported, and believed in. All of my students are winners and I make this a point to them daily!

My students are my strength and my reason for coming to work. My students motivate me in ways they will never know. Every obstacle a student of mine overcomes warms my heart and pushes me to fight to get them to reach all of their goals because they can, they have and they will.

My Project

This project will help me as the teacher and my students in many ways.

I can easily input grades and student data into programs that will quickly tell me the percentages and scores of the students accurately.

This project will also help because It is important for both teachers and students to learn and be familiar with using a computer to gather information and ideas. Having this computer in our classroom will help us have fun learning time and engaging activities like Quizizz and Kahoot. My students love futuristic learning and I try my best to expose them to as much of it as I can. This computer will help them gain that exposure and add to the fun activities that students brag about experiencing in our classroom.
