My Students

My students are very special. I teach second grade to an amazing group of kids.

They love learning and growing.

This year they need extra practice more than ever. They are hard workers but they missed out on school in Kindergarten and first grade. So we have some catching up to do.

I really want them to have as many learning experiences as possible in school and at home.

My students come from all over the world, and they speak multiple languages. They come from low socioeconomic families. 100% of the students at our school now receive free lunch. Let's get them extra supports!

Thanks for your support!

My Project

I can't wait to share more technology with my students. They love learning and love technology so let's put both of them together to create amazing learners. Some students lack technology or internet access so we can solve both of those problems with this great project for Kindle Fire tablets. I appreciate your kindness and generosity. This year is like no other, so let's make it memorable for these great learners. We have so many ups and downs this year. Let's light up their world together.

Thanks for considering our class.

We would be very grateful if you choose us.
