My Students

My school is amazing! We have wonderful staff, parents and the students in my classroom are fantastic! I teach in a blended classroom which means I have students ranging from ages 3-5. I have 20 students in my AM session and 19 students in my PM session. The majority of my students are general education students; however, 1/3 of my students are students with special needs.

I love observing the interactions amongst my students because at this age no one sees any differences, everyone is treated the same and everyone is included.

It doesn't matter if some students have limited speech, cognitive impairments, or health related concerns. We modify and differentiate our curriculum so every student can apply what is learned, participate, and succeed.

My Project

My students love learning and I want to reach every child! These materials such as the Bose SoundLink Color Bluetooth Speaker will be used in my classroom during music to project songs the children choose to hear.

I will be able to search songs over the internet or other related topics that we may be studying and play the attachment wirelessly from a computer or a phone.

Using the Logitech Speakers and Subwoofer will be beneficial when connected to a projector. Students will be able to view the screen while hearing crisp lyrics or commentaries depending on what we are studying.
