My Students

I teach some pretty amazing, young people! I look forward to going to work each day because my middle school students are enthusiastic, thoughtful and very inquisitive! They absolutely look forward to coming to math class because they know they will have an opportunity to work collaboratively and actively, through a variety of engaging projects and challenges that allow them to use critical thinking skills to arrive at solutions. They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically. Truly, they are my inspiration!

Unfortunately, I have discovered that often, my students will express the challenges they have to complete our project based lessons outside of the classroom due to their lack of supplies and resources at home.

Teaching in a large school where our computer labs are often occupied for state tests, classroom devices would be a huge blessing. With a class set of tablets or laptops, my students will develop necessary skills to succeed in this digital age.

My Project

The iPad bundle with charging station and Sony earphones will make a huge difference in the way my students learn and my teaching. Having and effectively using iPads in my classroom, will provide additional opportunities for my students to have more personalized learning experiences.

I will be able to personalize lessons to fit each of my student's progress.

My students will be given opportunities to access additional educational platforms such as iReady math, Google Classroom, Nearpod, research projects and financial literacy projects and so much more.

Our students' lives are centered around technology and being able to provide them with relevant experiences will make learning concrete and no longer abstract.
