My Students

I teach wonderful fifth graders who are eager to learn and grow to make a difference in the world around them. My class is diverse and is learning each day how to work together as a team. A large portion of my students are faced with obstacles on a daily basis, in and out of the classroom, and come to school to learn and become better citizens. Many students do not have a positive attitude towards school and I want to change that.

As an educator, it is my personal goal to provide the best education possible for all of my students, on an educational and personal level.

I want to prepare my students for the world around them and provide them with knowledge and experiences that would allow them to be better citizens in and out of the classroom.

Many of my students strive for attention, mostly negative attention, and I want to be able to show them that being a model citizen and a good friend can make the classroom, school, community, and the world a much better place through reading and education.

My Project

The digital age is here and we are having to adapt faster and faster each day. With so much of schooling online and through video, students need to be able to have a reliable resource to hear the teacher during instruction. Students should also be able to communicate and talk with the teacher and classmates and these headphones would be able to help students feel more confident during class.

When you don't have to lean close to the computer to hear the teacher talk or to respond to prompts, students feel more confident and comfortable during class instruction.

These headphones will also be a great tool to help students great clear video projects and listen to videos filled with great content in all subject areas.
