My Students

"Develop a passion for learning. If you do, you will never cease to grow." - Anthony J. D'Angelo

My students are an eager group of third graders ready to take on the next adventure that I have in store for them.

They are thinkers, hard workers and constantly curious. My students come diverse backgrounds which helps to enrich the culture of my classroom.

My Project

I would love to have two iPads in my classroom for my students to use on a daily basis. The students would be able to use the iPads for research, developing math and reading skills, as well as be able to take their Accelerated Reader quizzes on a more consistent basis.

Donations to this project will help to improve my classroom because we will have access to technology on a daily basis in my classroom.

I will be able to use the iPads to have students practice their academic skills as well as be able to access resources via the internet to share with all of the students instantly.
