My Students

Having taught in a Title I school for the past several years, my transfer to a non-Title I school was surprising in several ways. Since my first day with my delightful 4th Grade class, it has been thrilling to discover their tremendous individuality and the diversity of their gifts and needs.

They are a fascinating blend of curiosity, kindness, passion for learning, desire to lead, and willingness to help and serve.

Interestingly these characteristics are mixed with an equally fascinating blend of anxiety, attention deficit, and other special needs, all requiring individualized nurturing and differentiated instruction.

Another surprise about my new school is that we actually have less funding for technology and other teaching resources than we did at my Title I school. How wonderful it will be to link up with generous people and organizations who are willing to share resources to help educators in our quest to change the world one amazing child at a time.

My Project

In my class students record themselves reading their own writing projects. Additionally those who are fast finishers serve children in lower grades by recording themselves reading picture books.

To make this even more fun, they use puppets made in class to help them read to the little kids.

Background noise can make recording difficult, so these headphones with microphones will enable them to hold the mic closer to their mouths so their voices will be stronger on the recordings.

Working with puppets and making videos of them reading with their puppets is a great learning motivator. These earphones with mics will be very helpful.
