My Students

My class is a group of fifth graders whose families opted for remote learning when our district returned to in-person learning at the end of October. They are a fun group who are motivated to learn and work hard everyday! They are remote learners for a variety of reasons, but they show up everyday with smiles on their faces, eager to see what new explorations I have in store for them.

My Project

While teaching from home via Zoom, I need a computer that is reliable and won't leave students hanging on a Zoom call when the machine freezes. I need to be able to switch applications quickly so I don 't lose instructional time waiting for digital material to load on an old, outdated computer.

I also need my computer to be able to jump from a video of a science experiment to Google Slides for documenting results and back to the video quickly and seamlessly while still connected to my students on Zoom.
