My Students

My students are coming to my classroom from a hectic Kindergarten year. The students are going to want to learn and want to be in school. For most of them, this will be like coming to school again for the first time. My students come from low-income backgrounds so being in school is very important to them. This is going to be my very first year of teaching so I will be learning right along with my students. We will be meeting online until November and then meeting in person after that. I am excited to see my first graders excited to learn.

My Project

I picked three ChromeBooks out for my students to use during their centers when they are in my classroom. This will help the students be able to work on Waterford and Lexia while in my classroom. My students will also be able to access their Google Classroom while in centers. Technology is very important to a successful classroom. This is my first year teaching so I want to make sure I have the best materials available for my students. Thank you for taking a look at this project. I will have the students write a thank you letter to the donor.
