My Students

My 6th grade students are amazing! I have a diverse class who would truly benefit from some amazing help in our classroom. I live in a suburban area with a lot of apartment housing in Utah.

I really enjoy being with and learning from my amazing 6th graders!

They inspire me to become a better teacher each year. I have a class composed of extremely creative thinkers! I also have many who excel in math studies and who want to be challenged.

My Project

My students need headphones in order to hear their learning programs. Right now we are sharing a set of headphones between 4 classes, and it's difficult to have kids share with 90 other students on a daily basis. Their reading & math leveling programs are done online with Chromebooks, and kids need to be able to hear the instructions and the lessons with their own headphones.

The iPad is for me to install learning games to help facilitate what they learn with me in a more fun, creative way for them.

I will use many Math & Language Arts apps, and will be able to have several students use it per week as an addition to their regular online learning.
