My Students

My fifth graders are the best! They have a hunger to learn. They love to learn using technology to enhance their mathematical skills. They are eager to learn and try new things.

Education is the most powerful weapon for changing the world.- Nelson Mandela

My students are always looking for ways to advance their education whether it's through reading or inquiry. Technology allows them to explore places that some of them might not be able to go to or learn about through the pages of a book. As a teacher I believe in teaching the whole child. The classroom extends itself and should be endless! Technology is way of endless possibilities. Allowing young children to navigate images and sources at the click of a button.

My Project

Many of my students suffer from asthma and allergies. The portable air conditioner will help improve health and wellness for my students. Learning in a comfortable environment is very important. Students should be able to have access to clean air. The portable air conditioner also has a humidifier to purify the air. Global warming has had a great effect on the air we breathe. Often times causing severe sinus and allergy issues. The portable air conditioner will reduce allergens and keep the climate in the room at a comfortable temperature.

Cleaner and cooler temperatures will keep students calm during the spring and summer months!
