My Project

The MacBook will provide my students with a print-rich environment to begin their literacy skills as well as their math, social/emotional, cognitive, and skills beyond to teach the whole child. I can do this by creating many things such as Google Docs, literacy pieces for story telling with graphics, math counting tools, social/emotional photos of the students. Please help me support my students by being able to create the tools they need to succeed. As our society continues to go toward a technology based world, we as educators need the tools to be able to support our students needs. Students can help me when creating these tools. We can work together to take photos of the classroom, use the printer to add pictures and words to our classroom environment.
