My Students

Every morning I am greeted by 23 energetic, excited, fun-loving children. These children come from all different walks of life and bring their own creative energy to our classroom. Our classroom is a very fun and nurturing atmosphere and together we are a team.

My classroom is an opportunity for students to stay engaged through movement for the purpose of enhancing their education.

Many of our daily routines require movement. I try to make learning as fun as possible by differentiating my lessons to meet each child's needs while keeping students focused.

My Project

My students learn the best by doing. We run our classroom on interactive centers for learning. With the Ozobots, I will be able to create differentiated lessons for my students' learning. They will be able to discover letters, words, etc all through these tiny robots. During our differentiated centers students will work with each other on latter formation. They will also be able to work on building sight words.

While exploring with the Ozobots, they will be learning the magical world of computer science.

Computer science is our future and so our own students. These robots will help my students discover their own ability to create projects with concrete outcomes in a virtual world. The materials in this project will be used by the students to enhance their learning in our classroom, specifically in their differentiated learning centers. During the centers, students will use crayons, markers and the dry-erase crayons to create first grade appropriate outcomes to their center work.

These will encourage my students to think at a deeper level! Many of my students struggle with problem solving. With the ozobots I can place kids in small groups and let them work on their problem solving and coding.
