My Students

I teach the most amazing group of 4th graders! Being located next to a military base, means we have children from all different backgrounds, with so many different experiences!

I want the children to have the best I can provide for them, they deserve it!

My students are eager to learn and are so creative with their work. Academically, our classroom has a wide range of learner to include special education as well as gifted education.

We have fun in our classroom and do many project based learning activities. We yearn for the ability to do more research and have more readily available resources at our fingertips!

My Project

Being located next to a military base, means we have children from all different backgrounds, with so many different experiences! Technology is the future and I often find myself wanting to turn to it to teach. Unfortunately, at our school, we are limited to what we have. With 1 desktop computer and a laptop, it can be very challenging to expose the children to everything they need! We have so many learning resources to use, we just need the technology to be able to actually use them!

Having these Kindle Fires would mean having the ability to allow my students to explore and become more engaged in their learning!

Having 10 kindles, with protective cases in our classroom would allow us to use resources, apps, and access the internet in order to meet the students' needs!
