My Students

My students always enter eager to learn and ask questions. What I love about my students are their excited, goofy, and open personalities. We have learned to have so much fun in the classroom, but also leave retaining mathematics from a certain day's topic. I always look forward to a new day with my students.

My Project

During the pandemic, teaching students has made it extremely difficult in and out of the classroom because of social distancing and cases rising. Unfortunately, I do not have the resources to teach my students virtually when they are sent home, whether it be a few students or the entire class. Having a laptop to teach off of or record myself teaching would make it so much easier on myself and the students. Our children are struggling this year to learn any subject; therefore, I hope to do what I can to provide the best education possible. They learn and retain more information when they have an educator there with them every day teaching them and answering questions instead of just a packet or book being sent home.
