My Students

I currently teach eager first grade students. They have a love for learning and technology. I want my students to have the best opportunity to thrive in this 21st-century. My students love reading, writing, social students, science, math and all artistic subjects.

My students are limited on the access they have to updated resources.

Students should be able to thrive in a learning environment that is safe, limitless, and creative. This will allow them to thrive as adults in a technology driven world.

My Project

I am always attending workshops that will allow me to become a better teacher. I currently take a three subject notebook with me to all of my workshops. I have started traveling all over the country to attend different professional developments. I want to be able to take this tablet with me everywhere that I go. I am always trying to earn new things to do with my students. My students currently have a class set of iPads.

I want to also get my own tablet so that I can take it with me to various iPad/Apple Education professional developments.

There are various leveled classes at the Apple store in my city. They offer courses every week to help teachers learn how to use their devices. The Apple Education workshops are geared towards educators and will help me learn how to incorporate technology in my classroom.
