My Project

I have a wonderful group of diverse third-grade students. They love to read, write, calculate, create, and problem-solve, but most importantly, my class is needing new and enhanced instruction geared towards my GATE students.

What is GATE?

Gifted and Talented Education. I am currently taking a 9 month GATE certification program and need a laptop to help me achieve this goal. The classes are all virtual and that's the reason why a laptop is necessary for me to continue my education. Please support my continuing education. I want to be the best teacher for my awesome third graders.
