My Students

Hello! I am a mathematics teacher and volleyball coach for grades 9-12 students. We are a hard-working, blue-collar community. Students are not afraid of hard work and getting down to the bare-bones of breaking down academics and athletics. Our students want to be successful and be competitive.

We want to have the resources to stay up with curriculum in the case of a school closure or if students are not able to be in school in person.

I would love to add technology to my math classroom to make this possible for all students to continue learning seamlessly from any location.

My Project

This laptop would be used to deliver content to students who are learning secondary mathematics at home. I have numerous students quarantined and I'm trying to deliver content to students in class and online simultaneously. This laptop would be able to travel with me to make movement around the room with a camera easier for online students to see the board and follow along and still hear our lesson.

I would be able to use this touchscreen laptop to record lessons and deliver content to students in person and at home to help deliver the best education I can.
