My Students

My students come to school ready to learn and I want to have the opportunity to keep motivation, and engagement high! By doing so, I get to watch each student discover what they are passionate about.

It is important to me that my students thrive to be lifelong learners.

Therefore, providing them with materials that allow them to make discoveries is very important to me.

My students are determined, curious, and thoughtful and I want to continue lighting sparks and instilling a love for learning!

My Project

It is important to me that my teaching is engaging and fun! Chromebooks will give me the opportunity to reach my students who learn in many different ways.

The addition of technology will allow my students to practice both math and literacy skills at individual levels.

Therefore, they will have the chance to take ownership of their learning as they practice specific skills needed for their growth as lifelong learners.

By donating to this project, you are helping to heighten engagement and academic achievement. Students will be eager and excited to learn, and their confidence will grow as they are supported with technology.
