I teach in a Title I school in Nebraska. Most of our students come from different backgrounds, various countries, and speak different languages. Despite this, they are eager learners who love coming to school. By teaching them in a creative and positive way, I am hoping to inspire my students to continue on a path of academic excellence.
Many of my students need support to strengthen their literacy, writing, math and problem solving skills in fun, engaging, hands-on, and exciting ways.
It is my goal to give all of my students the best academic foundation to prepare them for the future and to experience the joy of learning!
They are a fantastic and diverse group of kids, and I am very blessed to have each and every one of them in my classroom. I believe that my students have the ability to do anything and go anywhere their imagination takes them. My students are enthusiastic and ready to soak up whatever is placed in front of them, and they deserve the very best.
My Project
It is my goal to give all of my students the best foundation to prepare them for the future and to experience the joy of learning. It is important that kids are given the tools to think critically every day.
Osmo is a technology based, hands-on tool that will give students multiple opportunities to problem solve and think critically, while learning and having fun!
Osmos combine tactile exploration with innovative technology, while actively engaging children in the learning process.
I love providing my students with technology tools that make learning fun, interactive and engaging. My students look forward to using technology that they may not have the opportunity to use at home. Please help me give my students the ability to learn through real world exploration, problem solving, and technology. Thank you in advance for helping me achieve this goal of supplying materials that can help our students drive their education and love for learning.
