My Students

My students are awesome little sponges! They love to learn. My class of eager students comes to school each day ready for me to help them workout their brain muscles. They want to absorb everything I have to give them. They bring a wonderful diversity of cultures and languages that they can share with me and each other. They make me want to do everything I can to help them reach their potential. The love of learning I see in them now I hope to develop, and hope that it will continue throughout their lives.

My Project

Our world has shifted drastically. We are using technology more than ever. More and more of student learning is on devices. No matter how great all this technology is, students still need to write and draw and color. They need folders to help keep all these papers together.

These materials will help bring online ideas to them to write on and make their own.

My special needs students often lose focus and learning through screen time all day is not ideal. I would love to be able to print out the same information for them to have on paper.
