My Students

Welcome to our school with all of our amazing students! We are an inner city school with over 540 PreK-6 grade students, all who receive free breakfast and lunch. Students keep thanking me for the new resources and supplies and I tell them it couldn’t happen without your support!

I am always striving to learn new technology so my students can learn and be as successful as they possibly can.

I recently attended a workshop where they used the Osmo technology and saw how the different activities benefited their students in multiple content areas including reading, math, science, and coding.

I have been lucky enough to be teaching at the same school for 23 years and am grateful each and every day for my students.

My Project

I would love to be able to incorporate the Osmo technology into my classroom. It is essential that I do everything possible to help our students succeed and gain a love of learning, the desire to acquire new skills and the curiosity to want to explore. They are always so excited to come to class and see what project or idea they'll be working on next. My hope is that I can show how effective the iPads and Oosmos will be so that my school/district will purchase more.

Not only will students be able to use the requested iPad with the Osmo curriculum, they will also be able to use many other applications, to research, Skype, create movies, record themselves reading books plus much more.
