My students came to me with a passion for reading, writing, and art. I am continually amazed by their reading and writing stamina along with their desire to engage in literacy and art activities.
I would love to enhance their school experience with digital learning opportunities.
Our school is 90% free and reduced price lunch rate. For many of my students, interaction with iPads and educational games and apps happens only within our classroom walls.
My Project
With iPads, my emerging readers will be able to use programs including Raz-Kids and Starfall to aid in reading fluency and comprehension. My students will be engaged with QR codes to record their own reading and listen to stories by other adults and classroom authors.
I will also focus on Empowering Students Through Art by having my students create digital stories, practicing coding, and improving spacial skills through Osmo's Tangram and Masterpiece games. With these additional iPads, our room can have a Osmo station readily available.
These iPads and headphones will allow students to learn in a new way, and for some, in the most effective way.
Because many of my students have limited exposure to technology outside of school, I want to provide multiple opportunities within our classroom to learn new digital skills. This addition to our classroom will also continue to foster my students' passion for reading, writing, and art.
