My Students

I teach at the home-school program in our small community. I have students who range from Pre-K all the way up to high school. I am the support teacher who meets with the families anywhere from once a week to once a month. The parents are the main educators, but when I meet with them, I am their support.

My students are very independent and are always trying to find a new way to learn and expand their brain power!

These students need to be given the opportunity to show off their work in different outlets as they get excited when something new is presented to them.

My Project

We will use the Silhouette Cameo 4 machine for many different things. It will help us cover the walls, bathroom, and windows with inspirational quotes, important information for specific subjects, and captions that won't damage the paint. Next, it will help us label things in the classroom and office to stay organized! We will also use it around the room on our whiteboards, book shelves, and bulletin boards to have semi permanent and readable information.

The Silhouette cutting machine will allow students to create their masterpieces and help spread cheer at the school.

Other teachers would also have access to the machine for their classrooms, providing inspiration and encouragement to not only my students, but to the entire school.
