My Students

My students are a unique mix of learners from a diverse suburban and rural area. In my classroom, you will often find students working together to solve problems and learn new skills, whether in small groups or with a partner.

My kids come from many different backgrounds with many different experiences.

These differences help my students learn from one another through discussion and teamwork. From the first day of school, we work together to create our classroom family that my students love to be a part of!

My Project

We live in a world filled with technology. Our students are accustomed to using technology in almost every aspect of life.

Teachers are constantly competing with the technology world to keep students engaged, but it can be difficult to do so without enough devices in the classroom.

These chromebooks would allow my students to each have access to their own device while in my classroom.

They can receive completely individualized instruction based on their educational needs. This would allow me to help each student grow to their maximum potential because they would learn exactly what they need rather than just what the class is doing.
