Archdale Trinity Middle School
Hometown:
High Point, NC
Class Information:
Room Number: 306
Students per Class: 110
Class Description:
Every year I have about 110 - 120 students. These students come from all socio-economic branches. I often teach a group of ESL students who are mostly hispanic and middle eastern. In the area I teach in, the unemployment percent is very high and students are struggling ot make ends meet. I teach two classes of regular language arts, one of AIG, and one comprised of reluctant readers and writers. The school has run out of supplies towards the end of the last two years. Paper in particular has not been available. Therefore, my hope is that doing lessons on more digital items will help.
Position:
teacher
Needs:
We need everything, but our main goal is to get more SMART boards in our school. We only have about 6 and there is a faculty of about 45.
My Philosophy:
I have recently taken a technology class and I am very excited to begin incorporating some of the things I have learned to my classes. I want to become more involved in using digital technology inorder to make my classes more engaging and my students more motiviated.
