Interests include music, reading, riding my bike, spending time with family and friends, and anything to do with children.

Classroom ActivitiesMy main goal in this classroom was to explore the plethora of Assistive Technology each student had access to. My pictures illustrate children using different types of technology.

Each day Id spend an hour with two students in particular, working with them while using computer software to learn (a touch-screen computer was much easier for them to maneuver).
