My Students

Students in my class are engaged, curious, empathetic, and creative. I am the 3rd-grade teacher at a K-5 Elementary School in San Francisco, California. My students are joyful learners in this urban setting, and everyone brings something unique to the classroom community. We have a diverse range of languages, socioeconomic status, religions, ethnicities, and races. With your support, students can access education in a more rigorous, dynamic, and contemporary way.

Curious, enthusiastic, and creative, my students are eager to immerse themselves in any challenge and learning opportunity.

Artists, mathematicians, readers, writers, scientists, and superheroes- your donations will help them achieve and see success academically and socially.

My Project

This document camera will capture, display, and magnify documents and materials on the classroom overhead projector. This will greatly improve the learning experience for both teachers and students alike. We are fortunate to have a classroom that is equipped with an overhead projector and screen. However, we are currently limited because do not have a way to capture the work the students and teachers are doing and display it on the screen. This document camera will connect with my laptop through USB and will be a seamless integration with our current classroom technology. Thanks so much!
