My Students

The school year has just begun and we have 30 fantastic 4th graders that have entered our classroom for the first time ready for an exciting year of learning. In our ICT classroom, our goal is to create a comfortable classroom environment where students look forward to coming each day to grow both academically and socially. Our classroom is filled with extremely diverse learners. 40% of our learners receive special education services and the remainder of our class is general education. Our neighborhood is very diverse as well. Many of our students receive free or reduced-price lunch.

Our students thrive on choice and finding purpose in what they are doing.

We would love for our students to be more independent and make positive choices within the classroom. All of our students deserve nothing but the best! Help us give them the best!

My Project

Our students need a toner cartridge for our classroom printers so that we are able to easily print materials needed within the classroom.

Our classroom includes 30 fantastic 4th-grade learners.

This ICT setting includes a mix of students with different learning styles, which is why our teaching model includes 2 classroom teachers. Our classroom printer is starting to run out of ink. Our classroom printer helps support our students' learning and engagement every day. In our classroom we love to do differentiated teaching centers, which has us using a lot of ink to print recourses. In an ICT classroom, differentiating instruction and printing handout for students with learning needs is key to our 4th-grade success.
