My Students

I truly love my third graders. They are the perfect age where they are independent enough to work on their own, but still need guidance. I teach the Gifted class, and their quirkiness is so magnificent. They are deep thinkers and expressive writers who welcome the opportunity to learn about each other's cultures in our diverse class.

I just think my students are the greatest.

My Project

This laptop will improve the students' Zoom learning experience. Newer laptops have quicker processing speeds and will allow for improved streaming of educational videos and interactive educational games. It would keep lessons moving along instead of having lag and glitches like we currently experience.

A new laptop would improve my lessons.

During distance learning, I have learned how to use new tools such as Jamboard, Quizizz, Kahoot, Nearpod, Edulastic, Edgenuity, and Google Classroom. A new laptop will help me integrate these tools more easily. I plan to hook this laptop to our new Promethean board to share my lessons. Thanks for your support.
