Reading with Technology

Funded Feb 17, 2014

We were so grateful to receive the the Samsung Tablet. When the package arrived my students were ecstatic and they began to clap. As I opened the box they could not wait to begin to use it.

My fourth graders have enjoyed using the Samsung Tablet in many ways. For example, they have used it to research information regarding people who have made a difference in the world, they have been reading informational passages, they have analyzed complex text, researched their individual mission projects, used different mathematical apps and researched information for their informational essays. In addition, the students have learned how to drag, pull and tap to interact with with story videos and educational books.

This project has boosted my teaching because the students have learned so much from having technology so accessible to them. I have seen lots of growth in their education and it is overwhelming rewarding. I know they will take the skills they have learned and use it in their future education.”
