My Students

I want my students to be excited to come to school every day. If you were to take a tour around my classroom, you would see a classroom that screams, "Learning is fun and exciting!"

I have a wonderful group of 6- and 7-year-olds.

When they see an opportunity to help someone in need, they jump right on with no questions asked. As we transition to an e-STEM school, I want students to have the opportunity to engage in technology to enhance their learning. They get excited about technology and want to use it more in their everyday learning.

My Project

The iPads and the laptop will be used to enhance math and science lessons. We have 3 science kits in first grade: weather, balls & ramps, and organisms. The iPads will be used during science for research. For example, during our weather kit, students will get a chance to use the weather app on the iPad, which will help them understand the impact weather has, understand weather patterns around the world, and use apps related to weather. We will also use the iPads during our organisms science kit. Students will understand the needs of animals and their habitat by conducting research projects on the iPads and the laptop. In math, we will use the iPads and laptop to reinforce mathematical skills/concepts. There are various websites for us to visit to reinforce mathematical skills. We also have a math program at our school that we can access. The iPads and laptop will allow students to learn math in a hands-on and engaging way. Students will be using the two daily during math and sciences

Donations to the project will help my current and future students.

With these iPads and laptop, students will be engaged and eager to learn math and science concepts! It will provide students opportunities who may not have any technology at home.
