My Students

My students come from a small neighborhood community and go to a Title I school. They are a resilient group of boys and girls who enjoy learning even if it means doing it at home. These third graders keep me on my toes with their curious minds.

My Project

I have been using my own personal laptop to conduct virtual classes and small groups each and everyday. It is now on its last leg because of the outdated processing unit.

This new Macbook will help me host my Zoom class and small groups everyday with the technology that I need.

Besides being on Zoom I am constantly researching and sharing different exciting virtual content to keep the students as engaged as possible. With this new laptop I will be able to do that and not have to worry about speed or lagging.
