My Students

My students range from age 4 to 12. They are the most caring, respectful, busy, smart, funny, inquisitive bunch of kids. They keep me on my toes daily. Most of my students reside in the public housing development that borders our school. An increasing amount of students reside in homeless shelters or other temporary housing. We also have a large population of students who are new to the country.

They come to us with many different needs and challenges.

I see most of the students in the school, including students who have physical and learning disabilities. All students are encouraged to learn and are held to the same standard, I just have to reach them in many different ways.

One thing they all have in common is that they love coming into the Computer Lab! I try to incorporate all subject areas and collaborate with classroom teachers so the children stay excited while learning.

My Project

The use of Little Bits will help engage my students by creating a classroom filled with fun and excitement. I believe this project will give me students a better understanding of the world around them. I want them to be creative and reinvent technologies that they find to be interesting. This will help them become more confident, independent thinkers and problem solvers. I feel that this project will help build life-long skills which are essential for success in the future.

By donating to this project you will help open the door to a world of wonder and possibility, allowing my students to see and believe in not only their ideas but their future as well.
