My Project

I want to give my students tools to enable them to express themselves. Fostering creativity in new ways is important.

Whether creating media, personalizing their personal space, or using manipulatives to see math in context, having the right tools is crucial.

These tools make those experiences possible.

As students are given these opportunities, they will refine their learning in diverse ways. I look forward to seeing them create videos that tell their stories and personalize their desk space in meaningful ways. Their excitement in learning how to use technology in new ways is contagious. They are willing to make mistakes and collaborate with others meaningfully.

Thank you for helping me foster learning in my classroom. Having the right tools makes all the difference.
