My Students

I work with the sweetest and most hardworking groups of 3rd graders! They love to learn and are always wanting to know more and questioning their world. Our school is in a small, rural town which fosters a close-knit classroom community.

My students are eager to learn and come to school ready to read, explore, infer, investigate, support, analyze and challenge themselves every day!

Their never-ending love of reading and learning pushes me every day to grow as an educator. I want them to leave me for the upper grades and the world!

My Project

My students are from a small, rural community. Families have limited access to the internet or computers. My students need to be able to stay competitive with their peers by developing technology skills that will allow with to access the internet, publish work, create multimedia projects and more.

These Chromebooks will be used throughout the school day and across curriculums.

It will allow students to research for a nonfiction book about a topic of their choice, create a multimedia project about famous people in our state's history, support students struggling with reading with targeted interventions, practice math facts, prepare for state assessments and so much more!
