My classroom is a fun and energetic place full of students ready to move into 3rd grade. This year I am so excited to loop into 3rd grade with my students and experience a whole new year with them. We are into our 5th year as a project-based environment, where the students guide their own learning and reach their own goals. When my students enter my classroom they are in a safe learning environment where mistakes are okay. Whenever we learn something new, I tell them that "try your best, if you make a mistake we will fix it together."
My students are hard working and enjoy working through the daily tasks that are handed to them.
Many of them face hard home lives so my classroom is made to be a safe and friendly learning community.
My Project
My students need a iPad to help with their programming for the Lego League competition. Every year students in my class compete in a competition that requires use to program a robot to complete missions. We currently use my work computer to do the programming and that doesn't always work.
An iPad will allow for my students to do programming for the competition even during the day when I need my computer.
The Lego League kids love programming the robot and the competition is so fun. We just need access to a device that allows us to program all the time.
