My Students

The students at our school are great! They come to school prepared to learn and are very eager to gain as much knowledge as they can.

My students are ready to explore technology for their learning adventure!

When they come to school they are bright-eyed and ready to be engaged in the days lesson. The students are a fantastic group of kids. It's always heartwarming to see their smiles each day and hear their laughter. My students are the best!

My Project

Technology is all around us. Having iPads in the classroom would be wonderful. Students can learn how to navigate the computer and use the iPad for many projects and class assignments. Access to technology is sometimes taken for granted. Our school would like to ensure that all students have the resources needed to be successful in the world.

The use of modern technology in the classroom will prepare students for college and future careers.

The iPads will be used by students in the classroom to research, graph, create digital stories, and note taking. Having this technology will encourage and enable students to do much more that just pen and paper assignments. They may go beyond the usual by learning to make3D models and video conference with teachers, authors, and peers. Students will also use the iPads to go to educational apps and work independently.

There are so many innovative ways that the technology can be used in our classroom and our students are excited to learn and explore so that they may grow and be well prepared and college bound!
