My Students

I work in a self-contained classroom setting, supporting middle schoolers scoring anywhere from the first to seventh-grade math level. My goal year after year is to successfully teach all of the required math standards, while also finding ways to fully support my students who are not quite at grade level. My students love to use technology, so I try to incorporate instructional videos and other online components into my students' learning. I absolutely love what I do, and constantly strive to better my teaching ability by attending professional development tailored to special education and mathematics.

My students are incredibly kind, hardworking, respectful, and have a thirst for knowledge that motivates me to go above and beyond to make their learning environment the best it could be.

I have found over the years that collaboration and the incorporation of technology are both the most motivating factors that drive learning in the classroom. I find that this is especially accurate in the special education setting, as many of my students are visual and kinesthetic learners. This year, I want to make it easier for my students to have quick access to this technology.

My Project

I would love to be able to airplay lessons on the Promethean board next year whenever I can't use the iPad to do so. We have a classroom laptop currently (a Lenovo) and I would love to be able to make that an official laptop for my student's use while we have this Macbook for our daily lessons.

I have learned so much about Airplay, Bluetooth, and other features that our classroom Promethean boards have, and I am learning that nothing beats the Apple brand products when trying to use these features in my daily lessons.

I am really looking forward to getting back into my school building and getting back to a "normal" classroom routine. Being able to start off the year with this device would be amazing, especially as I continue to explore all of the capabilities these devices have!
