My Students

My students are imaginative and creative. They come from diverse backgrounds, and they work hard and take pride in their education. Their families work hard to provide what they need to succeed and get the most out of their time at school.

My passion is to encourage and empower all of my students to reach their greatest potential.

My students always deserve to get the best out of their educational experience. I strive to provide lessons, activities, and the environment to help them grow to their greatest potential.

My Project

Being a student is hard work, and sometimes a creative break is needed. My students love to have the opportunity to be creative and do art projects in the classroom. During these creative times, they would also enjoy listening to music.

An Amazon Echo Dot speaker, Artlicious canvasses, and watercolor sets would help foster musical and artistic appreciation in my students.

Using my existing Amazon Music subscription, my students would have access to a wide variety of music on the Echo Dot speaker as they work on their art projects. We could also use the speaker to listen to podcasts, check the weather before going out to recess, and have quick access to information on the internet.
