My Students

These are unprecedented times. Never did I imagine that when my scholars and I said goodbye in March it would mean that it was our last day in the classroom. However, the year is not over yet!

My students and I have embarked on the distance learning journey!

We are actively engaged in all sorts of different online platforms and learning new things. My scholars and I participate three times a week in Zoom meetings to go over new material, and to check in with each other. In addition, I am recording lessons at home for them to view and continue to learn new material. I am amazed by their level of engagement and participation, and families' willingness to try new things.

My scholars are imaginative and fun-loving kids. They come from low-income households and have not had much experience with the world outside their small community.

Despite the current and very scary situation, we are all facing, my scholars have maintained a level of engagement that is to be commended. It is my desire to ensure that they maintain not just their academic gains but to also maintain positive social-emotional attitudes in the midst of this storm.

My Project

Computers, tablets, and smartphones have become ubiquitous in education.

However, keeping computers up-to-date, and keeping them running in top condition is vital.

However, this can be difficult when some educational institutions have hundreds or even thousands of computers to manage.

This is true for my school-issued computer, unfortunately, it has stopped working and cannot be repaired. It was suggested that a new device be issued to me, unfortunately at this time with the tremendous strain on budget due to the global crisis my school is unable to order me a new device to continue my work with planning and teaching scholars remotely.

If it all possible you can assist me in securing a new device to ensure my scholars have no gaps in their learning, I would be greatly appreciative.
