Class Description:
My class is made up of a mixture of races, economic status, family situations, and academic abilities. I have an equal number of boys and girls. There are single parent families, two-parent families, and officially "homeless" families represented. Half of my students participate in the federal lunch program. Six students are being considered for gifted/talented services, three attend reading intervention classes.

Teacher
Needs:
Smartboard, projector, digital video camera, laptop computers, Ipod, wireless headphones and wireless CD/cassette player, Elmo, Ipod speakers/docking station
My Philosophy:
All students can learn. The rate at which they learn is based on several variables, and one of these variables is becoming increasingly more important: the method of delivery of instruction. Technology is more available to the general public than ever before. Children's interests are changing. They center more and more on video games, computer games, and internet-based interactive technology. I am committed to modifying my instruction so children are as motivated to learn academics as they are to play.
