My Students

I am privileged to work at an amazing school in Kentwood, MI. Every day I am faced with 29 smiling faces that come from diverse backgrounds and populations. My students come to me with varying abilities and experiences which makes every single one of them unique and special. I love each and every one of their personalities and traits that create our classroom community. My students are active participants in our classroom and take charge of the teaching in many instances.

I strive to have my students take ownership of their learning and to feel empowered to take chances that deepen their understanding of the content.

My Project

Help us improve our learning environment with headphones to use with iPads! Students use iPads multiple times per day to work on reading fluency programs and differentiated reading and math lessons. Headphones will help students focus on their ipad and cut down on other noises they hear around them. Good quality headphones will allow students to hear sounds correctly which is very important to beginning readers! Because we use headphones so much in the classroom we have gone through a lot of pairs. Investing in good quality headphones is needed to ensure student intervention time is intentional and focused. Thank you for the support!
