My Students

I teach 8th graders in a suburban school in Queens, New York. I have 165 students that range from advanced students that take the Living Environment Regents course for high school credit to general education classes that take General Science. In the general science classes, there are high performing students, English Language learners, and students with special needs that are in an ICT setting where there is a special education teacher that co-teaches with me to help all students achieve.

Together, Everybody Achieves More!

My Project

In my science classroom, we do a lot of projects which require students to print out materials whether it's science research, graphics, finished lab reports, science reports, etc. Most of the printers accessible to students in my school print in black and white, so my color printer is a hot commodity when students need to print something they need for another class. And I will never say no to a student in need. This also means they use my paper (and paper gets used really fast when you have 165 kids). The money that is allotted to teachers has already spent on other school supplies such as paper, pens and other normal everyday supplies.
