My Project
I can honestly say that I love my students and my job. What I love most about my students is their diligence, curiosity, enthusiasm, and generosity.
I am in need of a MacBook Pro to be able to participate in professional development.
My students success depends on me being knowledgeable in how to appropriately support their learning. I am currently taking several virtual professional developments and need a laptop to be able to take these PD's on my own time. I need to be able to zoom and participate in these online courses. I need a fast and reliable device that will allow me to multitask when implementing the lessons back in the classroom. My participation in these PD's and others to come will allow me to take my students from being non-readers to fluent readers.
