My Project

Hello! I am at the start of my 23rd year of teaching, and, as many of you know, technology has evolved immensely throughout our school communities. Despite my experience in the classroom, nothing could have prepared any teacher for the affects of the Pandemic. No matter what, it has always been my goal to help all my scholars excel inside and outside of the classroom, and also provide an equitable education for Black and Brown scholars. When I decided to transition from Kindergarten to 1st grade with my scholars, I thought of what would help enhance learning in our classroom.

This document camera will definitely be a game changer in my classroom, as it will provide real time step by step differentiated instruction giving access to all types of learners.

Since I started teaching over two decades ago, I have planned and attempted to execute each lesson (academically, socially and emotionally) with FIDELITY. Please help me provide my scholars with the education they deserve.
