My Students

My students range from age 4 to 12 years. They are the most caring, respectful, busy, smart, funny, inquisitive bunch of kids. They keep me on my toes daily. Most of my students reside in the public housing development that borders our school. An increasing number of students reside in homeless shelters or other temporary housing. We also have a large population of students who are new to the country.

They come to us with many different needs and challenges.

I see most of the students in the school, including students who have physical and learning disabilities. All students are encouraged to learn and are held to the same standards; I just have to reach them in many different ways. One thing they all have in common is that they love coming into the Computer Lab! I try to incorporate all subject areas and collaborate with classroom teachers so the children stay excited while learning.

My Project

My students are eager to learn and love to use technology; unfortunately we don't have enough to go around. The Chromebook will give my students the opportunity to practice using technology during instruction. Chromebooks are easier for some of the students to use, making them feel more confident in using technology. The use of apps ensures that each student is learning and being challenged to improve. Coding is a new "language" that we all are learning together. We have practiced coding, moving characters around (programming) on the screen; eventually I'd like to add robots to our STEM station. Having the Chromebook will help my students learn every day.

Being able to use technology will help them prepare for high school, college or any career that they may be interested in.

Thank you to all donors past and future! I appreciate you.
