My Students

My students from Michigan are full of grit. They value education and never let anything hold them back from learning. A favorite subject in my class is reading. They love to get lost in a good book that is full of adventure. My students will fall in love with characters and really build a strong connection to how a character lives life. When a book character dies or goes through a hardship, you can look at my students' eyes to know that they truly understand the impact.

My students are empathetic, caring, and goal-driven​.

My Project

In third grade, my students start to learn how to code. It is one of our favorite activities. The amount of engagement in my class is unbelievable when students work together to try to solve a coding issue. When one student figures out the correct steps, the others come running to see how they did it.

Unfortunately, our coding resources are limited and soon my class reaches the end of what they can physically code.

These Tello drones would be the next step for us. If we received these drones, we would be able to go even further.
