My Students

"If we teach today as we taught yesterday, we rob our children of tomorrow." - John Dewey

My 21st-century learners are enthusiastic about hands-on, digital learning.

They relate best to apps in class as a result of the amount of time they spend on their personal technology devices.

My students make up a third of the roughly 400 ninth graders at our county's public high school of almost 1,500 students.

These students come from four separate feeder schools; they make up five sections of English 9. They are diverse in the ways they learn where they excel and struggle at a variety of levels. Regardless of those levels, they all desire to learn and advance. Plus, they all have excellent attitudes towards trying new things.

My Project

Help my students practice their skills in front of a camera! My students all love Tik Tok, and they will spend hours mastering the various dance trends. Why not incorporate this into grammar lessons?

An iPad for the class will give them the opportunity to create projects that are short, easy to edit, and fun all while being educational!

They want to all be "influencers" and I want them to be the best they can be in English. Supporting their interests while also giving them an education is how I want to be their "influencer."
