My Students

My class of 18 curious second grade boys will be transforming into pro surfers all the way from South Carolina. This is a great fit for our class because it fits their character. These boys may get knocked down but they are never afraid to get back up and try again. They are the most determined students to get it right.

These students can light up any room, they have contagious smiles, warm hugs, and thoughtful minds.

They make the most out of every situation no matter how big or small. They push through obstacles that they never thought they could overcome. These wonderful gentlemen take in each moment we provide them.

These students are going to change the world and I cannot wait to help them get there! Let's surf into second grade together!

My Project

As we all know technology is booming. My second graders are no strangers to technology. My classroom, unfortunately, does not have much technology available. Being in a Title I school, we are limited.

Technology opens up so many opportunities in the classroom.

I want my students to be engaged in their work. I have centers for reading, this allows the students to be independent as well as getting multiple areas of reading done in one lesson. The students love participating in centers because they only have to focus for a small amount of time but they also get to move around.

The one thing my class lacks is technology. I could not only use these Fire tablets for the reading centers, but also for research projects, early finisher work and so much more.

When students are excited about something so am I and my students are excited about technology! Help me integrate technology in my class!
