My Students

I am a public school teacher who teaches exciting and energetic seventh graders. I teach exceptional education students with various learning needs. My students struggle with the traditional classroom and learning strategies. They have difficulties grasping onto content through lecture and reading.

My students learn better with the use of technology.

The students I teach are kinesethetic and visual learners. When they are allowed to opportunity to see and touch they are able to retain all information being instructed .

My Project

A classroom library will provide students with a selection of books more appealing to their appetite and access to the library will always be readily available. Our generation of students learn better with the use of technology. Chrome books would help my students advance academically. They will be able to use educational website that help aid in their learning. Dry erase boards wills help my students when we have open discussion, use as manipulatives, or group assignments.

Theses items will bring excitement and joy to the students learning.

When students are excited about learning they are more successful in the classroom.
