Safe and Sound

My Students

I teach at a dynamic school that focuses on performing arts and environmental science. My students are extremely diverse and come from all areas, socioeconomic status, and backgrounds.

My students love to learn by enjoying hands-on, active lessons and are driven by technology and reading.

They are amazing students, leaders, and individuals! Our students are leaders who follow the 7 Habits of Happy Kids. They take initiative and use the habits to shape their lives and their learning. They lead to succeed!

My Project

We need several items to ensure safety and keep the learning going in our classroom during the pandemic.

We will use an air purifier and mask lanyards to keep us healthy while listening and learning with our individual headphones and teacher voice amplifier.

Students will be able to keep their masks hanging around their necks during lunch so they won't get lost or end up sitting on a table with lunches. Learning will be much easier if we have individual headphones for our computer activities and a voice amplifier to hear the teacher better over the mask.
