My Students

Our school strives to find the leader in all students. Every child has capabilities, talents, and strengths; sometimes, all it takes is exposure or motivation. The students in my class strive for excellence. They all inherently care about one another and continually make an effort to improve in all aspects.

Students in Kindergarten through Fifth Grade visit my classroom for individualized reading instruction.

They all have a growth mindset and do their personal best to contribute to our classroom community.

My Project

My students need Chromebooks to enhance their instruction during small groups. With this technology, they will be able to access educational websites that will allow them to reinforce their skills. Chromebooks will allow them to grow and develop into independent learners and be more actively engaged in their education.

In the literacy classroom, we read electronic books, research topics, play educational games, and much more.

The addition of technology would provide my students with the tools that will take them into the 21st century. I want to help enhance my students' understanding and achievements in reading. I need your support to give students the opportunity to enhance the interaction with their classmates through technology, and to help maximum their own learning.
