My Project

In our classroom, fostering collaboration and engagement during small group instruction is essential for enhancing student learning. We are seeking an LG Stand by Me, and some technology accessories, that will transform how my students interact with content and each other. This innovative tool will provide a dynamic platform for group work, allowing students to collaborate in real-time, share ideas visually, and engage more deeply with the material we're studying.

Our goal for this project is to create a more interactive and hands-on learning environment where students can thrive academically and socially.

The LG Stand by Me will not only enhance lesson delivery but also empower students to take charge of their learning, develop critical thinking skills, and cultivate teamwork as they work collectively on projects and discussions.

What makes my students special is their diverse backgrounds and unique perspectives. Each student brings their own strengths and learning styles to the classroom, and I am dedicated to meeting their varied needs. With the LG Stand by Me, I envision every student feeling included and valued, contributing to group discussions, and experiencing a sense of ownership over their learning journey. Together, we can build a vibrant and supportive learning community that encourages creativity, curiosity, and collaboration.
