My Students

I have 55 amazing fourth-grade students, which includes special education students, English Language Learners, and intervention students.

They are very enthusiastic about learning and are always eager to explore something new.

They love coming to school every day and always have big smiles on their faces. They attend a wonderful school in Pennsylvania. These students enjoy learning and exploring every day during our math and science classes. All my students learn differently, and this is why I like to have a wide variety of options for them available daily.

My Project

Access to iPads will give my learners more opportunities to learn and create in the classroom. This technology will open up opportunities to use apps unavailable to use in other ways.

My learners are eager to explore and learn; iPads will expand their opportunities!

We also are hoping to use these iPads to practice our coding skills that we have working on during STEM! This technology will expand our opportunities and make learning both more accessible and immersive. We are excited about the prospect of augmented reality and virtual reality as well as the opportunities to create experiences for other learners to understand what we are learning.
