My Students

I am proud to teach students with such diverse cultures, ethnicities, backgrounds, and experiences within the City of Buffalo.

Each student is a special and necessary component in our classroom and is provided the opportunity to share their own unique perspective in the space.

I currently teach 7th and 8th grade science and hope to incorporate hands-on, engaging, and student-centered learning for my class. With different supports and materials, I strive to break down the barriers and inequities in learning and provide a space for all learners to thrive. My students deserve to feel supported in their success in every way possible!

My Project

I would like to provide students the opportunity to engage with enriching technology in the classroom, such as watching laboratory videos, listening to sound clips, and completing simulations. Having a class set of headphones will eliminate the students' stress of forgetting or buying their own headphones, knowing that they will be provided for in the classroom.

Equity is at the forefront of my teaching, and I would not want my students to miss out on an opportunity to learn because of forgotten, broken, or missing materials.

These durable headphones will allow students to effectively complete online work successfully for years to come.
