The Mississippi Gulf Coast is a vibrant, eclectic area full of history, hospitality, and of my favorite--awesome children! My classroom is home to boys and girls of all socioeconomic backgrounds. Many of my students receive free or reduced lunch. Being located so close to different military bases, I have the privilege to work with military families who are being stationed here for the time being.
The most important thing about my students is that they are so in love with learning and are always so excited about new activities I have planned for them.
You can't teach enthusiasm, and boy are they full of it! I work hard to keep them engaged and offer chances for them to work alone, with peers, or in small groups with me.
My Project
Our classroom is on our way to becoming a 1 to 1 Chromebook classroom. With our math curriculum having an online portion, it is imperative that all students have access to a computer daily. The students will be able to work independently using math strategies learned in the classroom to complete online tasks.
We only need 4 more computers to be 1 to 1!
it would be awesome for students to not have to share computers. This would also open doors for me to start incorporating other 1:1 activities that I am unable to do without a class set of Chromebooks.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
