My Project

In an effort to increase levels of engagement both in class and at home, I've compiled a list of items that will help me meet that goal. I'd love to offer a lending library of books so students can take their learning home and practice all reading foundational skills with parents and come back to take Accelerated Reader quizzes on those books.

Books, coupled with incentives, colorful paper, and some additional stem items will really help increase engagement in our classroom.

I've also added some new technology to aid in increasing engagement in our classroom. In an effort to keep up with the times and the constant change in technology, I've added an Apple TV to allow me to project things seamlessly from my laptop wirelessly to create more versatile, engaging lessons that can be interactive! To aid our existing technology I've added a few sets of headphones to this project for my friends who cannot afford to supply them themselves. Thank you so much to our generous donors in Nevada for helping make this happen for students for years to come!
