My name is Petronela Popa, I am the 6th - 8th grade Apps  Creator and Green Architecture teacher here at Sneed Middle School.  I finished my BA degree in Public Administration in 2004 and my Master's Degree in Business Administration in 2008 with over 16 years of experience in the business field.  During the PLTW  units: Apps Creator and Green architecture, the main objective is to help students develop critical thinking skills and problem-solving strategies, to put them on the path of intellectual independence.  I will try my best to accommodate each child's learning needs, because I believe that each child needs to be given the best chance of success to ensure an equal learning opportunity.
