My Students

Our classroom is an inclusive one which means some of the students are high performing general education students while others are overcoming various challenges as special education students. Some of these challenges include autism, speech and language impairments and visual impairments.

It's wonderful to see the students in our class all accept each other and learn from one another despite their differences.

Besides their learning differences, our school's population is also very diverse. Located in the heart of Queens, NY we have many immigrant students who have recently moved to America. On the other hand, we also have many students whose parents and grandparents were raised right in Queens and even attended our school!

My Project

We are requesting an iPad for our classroom. Our students have become excellent story writers and now we would like for them to have the opportunity to become digital storytellers by using specific apps that allow them to publish their books digitally. Also, we have noticed that some children who have a difficult time expressing themselves with paper and pencil, really flourish when they are allowed to publish their writing digitally. Currently, we only have access to iPads when we sign up for the school's iPad cart, and there is often a long wait! By having an iPad of our own in our classroom, we will be able to allow our students opportunities to express themselves digitally more frequently.
