My Students

At my school, the children are creative and enthusiastic about learning. Especially when it comes to cutting edge technology. Their faces light up when they are fully engaged in technology, gaming, engineering, and scientific experiments.

Our school is trying to get as much funding as possible through grants and donors so that we can continue to brighten our students' smiles and minds.

I know my children will be grateful for anything and everything that promotes a comfortable environment, 21st-century activities, and mind provoking play. I will be working with at least 500 different students K-5 who love learning, school, and technology!

My Project

Two heads are better than one. The children love working together with a partner on many projects. Especially, Computer Science Scratch projects where they can make music and add sounds to their projects. They love working together, but they have to constantly share a pair of earphones while working.

The splitter jacks would allow the children to use a single computer to listen to the sounds they are creating at the same time instead of swapping one set of earphones back and forth.

It would also allow me to listen in with a student from time to time.
