My Students

From the exterior, one can tell my students are awesome by their outlook on life. They are quick to smile, show affection, and like all students crave positive interactions with both their community and peers. Anyone that knows my students will say that they do not have a mean bone in their bodies. Some might say that it takes an enormous amount of patience to serve this kind of population, but when you have the students I do and you try to see from their position, the development of purpose and perspective almost automatically take place.

Our purpose is to highlight a student's needs, make a plan to improve the quality of resources given, and implement a guide to lead them towards a brighter tomorrow.

This is only done by getting to know who my students are, learning how to attain the best tools, and finding a way to reach them. With your help, we will be able to reach even further.

My Project

Less than a year ago, my classroom was broken into over the weekend where all the students' laptops were taken and our room was left in disarray. I promised myself to one day find a way to get even better devices that could get my students excited about how we use technology in the classroom. Together we chose an iPad for using GoTalkNow, compiling our year's photos into a slideshow/yearbook using Airdrop, and create short videos using music and pictures.

The beginning of the year is the best chance we have to restoring some of the technology we lost last year.

From previous projects, please be rest assured that these materials will not go to waste nor be forgotten. With your help and our deepest gratitude we will continue pushing the boundaries of what others see as our potential.
