My Project

COVID-19 profoundly impacted the educational environment. Research shows that attendance is an important factor in student achievement, and the pandemic has changed attendance patterns and increased stress in students. To counter this, I strive to provide a warm, inviting, and fun classroom environment where students can learn together. I strongly believe that when students enjoy coming to school and are happy in their classroom, they are more open to accepting challenges and are more likely to be successful. These items will allow me to create a magical classroom space with amazing lighting, sound, and snacks both for work periods and celebrations. The Apple pencil will allow me to mirror a school-provided iPad with a projector to provide clear examples during instructional time. Thank you for considering my project!
