My Students

I am a Special Education teacher in a low-income/high poverty school district. My students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to make learning fun for my kids everyday.

They are growing and learning together to make a difference in the community around them.

They are dreamers, thinkers, talkers, and questioners. They are mini inspirations to themselves and others around them, even if they don't know it yet. They are budding ambassadors, world travelers, scientists, entrepreneurs, teachers. They are our future and I want to give them a great start to their long successful career.

My Project

I anticipate that the utility and practicality of touch devices and headphones will become apparent relatively quickly with my students. We need two iPads to enhance their learning in Geometry. Having iPads in the classroom will help my students with whole-class exploration and discussion. The use of iPads allows me to set up activity centers to support further small group exploration, and finally allow individual or pair use to support consolidation, self-directed learning, fluency building, and assessment. With iPads in the classroom the students will have learning centers where they are able to use familiar apps to work on extended challenges; to identify, share, and evaluate strategies; and to expand and consolidate their understanding of underlying concepts.
