My Students

My 6th grade students are curious, innovative, caring, and fun! There is never a dull day in our classroom. In 6th grade Earth science, my students learn about our past, present, and future. Students are encouraged to use what they have learned to develop creative, impactful ideas that will help us move forward into a brighter future.

My Project

Help me to create more interactive and engaging lessons for my students! An Ipad and Apple pencil will assist me with teaching both virtual and in-person students concurrently.

The Ipad will serve as an additional screen, allow me to conduct virtual labs/field trips, differentiate instruction for my students, and serve as an additional resource for students who need a device.

The Ipad also offers an extensive library of apps to support student learning, and the pencil will allow me to quickly and easily provide feedback to students and highlight important information.
