My Students

My students are fun, energetic, and engaged learners. Anything I throw at them they take and run with. Not only are these kids smart, they are sweet kids! I am honored to be their technology teacher!

When I decided to become a teacher I thought I was going to make a difference in children's lives, but actually these kids are making a difference in mine!

I would do anything for them. I would dress like George Washington or change our entire room into a ship! Anything to make our lab fun and engaging.

To be able to do these things and not break the bank I am going to need some help!

My Project

Our Morning News Crew could use an iPad to create the Morning News cast. These students use flipgrid, WeVideo, and other applications to create our news. Having an iPad would increase productivity.

There are applications such as Green Screen that we would like to use but can only use on an iPad.

The News Crew would like to make out News even better by using different applications.

Our News Crew is very talented and would like the opportunity to be even better. An iPad can help us do just that.
