My Students

My students are some of the funniest, coolest people you will ever meet. My students are unique in that they have specific needs that other students may not have, although so many of my students will work so hard so that they can reach their potential and be seen as though they can achieve so much.

My students have dreams and they are working really hard to get to them.

My students come to school excited to learn and make friends.

My Project

I would love to have Chromebooks for my students. This would change everything about how they learn and about how we learn. I teach students with extensive support needs this would allow them to access curriculum with independence. So many of these students have to rely on adults for them to read to them or write for them. This would take that out of the equation and allow for students to complete their work on their own. This would increase so much independence and allow for confidence to be boosted. This would allow for students to excel independently. This would change everything.
