My Students

I love the age of my third grade students and that I'm a teacher in an inclusion classroom! Teaching third graders is so rewarding because they love school and they are just starting their journey on the "reading to learn" stage of reading comprehension. From K-2, most are still learning to read, and it's exciting to watch them become more independent and proud.

My Project

I am in need of a high quality laptop for planning and instruction in the hybrid and remote learning environment.

The laptop I currently have is limited and does not perform well during instructional times.

It runs slowly, kicks me out of meetings, the speakers and microphone struggle to work and it makes the day stressful for me and students. A new laptop would help the day run more smoothly for all students and give them the ability to access all of my lessons which include videos and interactive activities.
