My Students
I teach at an amazing school full of diversity. We have over seven hundred students and over one hundred are English as a second language students. One hundred are Advanced Program students, along with a robust regular education program and special needs program. We call ourselves "The Greatest School on Earth," and we truly are! I teach our digital learning, where students not only learn computer skills, but they participate in project-based learning. I get to teach all of our amazing students, either in a group setting, small groups, or individually. I am blessed to teach all of our students!
I want all of the students that enter my room to have amazing experiences because they are amazing and exceptional students!
My Project
I am excited about starting a podcast this year! I know my students will love writing, creating and producing them! It is going to be a great way for them to demonstrate learning, while learning the valuable skills of teamwork and collaboration.
I can't wait to see it increase their confidence and engagement as well!
Since we are just 'putting our toes' into podcasting, I am going to start with microphones and sound absorbing panels. We want our podcast to be quality, so these tools will help us get started!
With your help, these two tools will help us create a professional podcast with quality sound.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
