My Project

I love teaching middle school and technology is amazing! But sometimes my students need to get off a screen and they need cool pens and markers to use on paper! This year we are also spending a lot of time silent reading, so I want to offer my students a wide variety of books to choose from! All my students need to feel like my classroom is a place where they can walk in and have all the supplies, they need to be successful! I plan on doing a lot of listening to books while kids follow along. The speaker will help kids work in small groups and listen to books while following along with the audio and highlighting the important parts.
