My Students

My students are 21st-century learners. They love using technology in our classroom and I integrate it as much as possible into all of the subject areas. My students are a bunch of inquisitive learners.

I teach at a small neighborhood school with approximately five hundred sixty students.

We first opened our doors in 1950. Arts in education is a major emphasis on our campus. Our school's mission is to develop children into life-long learners as a result of a challenging curriculum, individualized instruction, high expectations, and a nurturing environment with parental and community involvement.

My class is made up of twenty diverse students, from students with special needs to those who are identified as gifted and talented. I encourage my students to appreciate each other's differences, as well as find similarities among each other. They are very active, creative, and enjoy learning.

My Project

Now that I have been able to purchase a couple additional iPads, I need a way to keep them organized and charged. By purchasing the UNITEK Charging Station, my students can help with the care and upkeep of our class iPads. They can learn to be responsible for keeping them charged and put away at the end of the day.

I would love to purchase a Lightning to HDMI VGA adapter so that students can easily share their projects with the class for everyone to see.

It would be very helpful for me to use, too, when demonstrating the activities and projects the students will be doing on the iPads.

The baskets will help keep our headphones, splitters, and timers organized, too.
