My Students

My students are 21st-century learners. They love using technology in our classroom and I integrate it as much as possible into all of the subject areas. My students are a bunch of inquisitive learners.

I teach at a small neighborhood school with approximately five hundred sixty students.

We first opened our doors in 1950. Arts in education is a major emphasis on our campus. Our school's mission is to develop children into life-long learners as a result of a challenging curriculum, individualized instruction, high expectations, and a nurturing environment with parental and community involvement.

My class is made up of twenty diverse students, from students with special needs to those who are identified as gifted and talented. I encourage my students to appreciate each other's differences, as well as find similarities among each other. They are very active, creative, and enjoy learning.

My Project

I was so fortunate to recently have a DonorsChoose project fulfilled for another iPad for my classroom. Now, in order to use our iPads and classroom computers to their fullest capability, students need to be able to hear what is being presented to them on their device for several activities during our Literacy Centers, Math Rotation, Science and Social Studies lessons. Students will also be able to record their voice when we use Seesaw or for voice to text dictation.

I am asking for a class set of BestGot headphones with microphones in order to meet our need.

Students will be assigned a pair to use throughout the year, and hopefully for future years! Currently, most of our headphones are breaking, falling apart and we need your help replacing them.
