My Students

My students are awesome and a joy to teach. They are excited to learn most days. They enjoy being able to learn and be kids

When they come to school, they are excited to see what fun adventures await us in the classroom.

They enjoy learning each day. My students are active and so much fun.

Most of our students are low income. Often times when they come to school, it is a great escape for them to just be kids. They love to learn and get excited when they learn something and can tell someone else about it.

My Project

Nearpod is a simple yet useful tool that will help me improve my teaching. I will be able to use technology based resources for when we are distance learning, I will also be able to use this program in the classroom.

Students love to be on the computer.

They enjoy learning through technology. It makes them feel more adult. With this program they can stay even more engaged while I instruct them as a whole group. They can also work in groups and as individuals.

This program allows them to learn even from a distance. I have very few science technology resources so this would hallow my students to continue learning science.
