My Students

Every morning we start off the day with big smiles end each day with a high five. We have more than just a teacher-student relationship. We are like a family.

My class is an ICT class, with 10 special education students and 18 general education students.

My students are an amazing group of children. They're so eager and motivated to learn more. I am lucky enough to have all of my students treat each other like family. They really are a great group of students who enjoy helping their peers and they deserve the best education possible.

My Project

My students would like a Microsoft Surface tablet in our classroom. My students are typical fourth grade students who LOVE to interact with the world around them! Interactive technology makes learning more engaging and memorable. It is more hands-on and would benefit my kinesthetic, auditory, and visual learners with special needs tremendously.

Tools such as audio and video recorders can change the way that learning takes place and homework is completed.

The tablet can also benefit the whole class. The whole class can look at one child’s work by attaching the tablet to the interactive whiteboard. This interactive tool will bring learning to life, while engaging all students with different needs. Please help us to achieve our goal.
