My Students

Hello! I am a 6th-grade teacher at a small charter school in Middletown, Delaware. I have a wonderful group of students with a wide variety of learning styles, backgrounds, personalities, and interests. My students are creative, clever, and are my inspiration. 6th grade is a pivotal year for so many reasons. I always hope to instill a love for reading in my students during this year of growing. The transition to middle school becomes one of learned responsibility and independence. It is wonderful to see the transformation that takes place during their 6th grade school year.

My Project

These Rocketbook notebooks allow students to do their work then take a picture with the Rocketbook app when they're done. The Rocketbook app allows pictures to be taken very well and it pops the colors making it easier for the teacher to see. With online learning and students submitting work online, students are having trouble getting great quality pictures and then becoming frustrated when asked to re-submit a better quality picture. These notebooks can be scanned and saved on their Google drive. Then, they use a moist towel to erase the notebook, giving them a brand new notebook. These notebooks come with a microfiber cloth and an erasable pen, so they will be able to get started working with them right away. These Notebooks can help reduce some unnecessary stress from my students during this pandemic.
