My Students

Our students are creative, thoughtful, and love to learn! The students love to engage in a variety of activities and projects where they work collaboratively to create solutions to real-world problems. They come to school each day full of positivity and ready to try new things.

As the leaders of the school, our students are constantly modeling appropriate academic and social behavior for the younger kids.

They inspire me with their kindness, curiosity, and creative thinking each and every day.

My Project

Our 5th graders need lots of practice with their multiplication math facts. Having the math facts tech tool will allow students to work, and master, their math facts independently.

The Flocabulary videos are engaging and provide a different way to learn content.

The resource also provides multiple ways to quiz and test the student's knowledge and has activities that will help solidify the information taught.

In addition to the technology teaching resources, I would like to incorporate coding into our curriculum. During the provided technology and art blocks throughout the school-week, the students will learn how to create games and videos through the coding site Scratch. It is vital that students learn and practice 21st century skills.
