My kindergarten class is made up of children from diverse backgrounds and experiences. Most are from low income homes with minimal devices, but this doesn't stop them from learning quickly how to use a computer, an iPad, iPod or other tech device because they all come in with a hunger to learn! Our school does an amazing job of fulfilling the needs of our students, but funds are still scarce for individual classrooms. Our teachers and administrators do a wonderful job of helping our students achieve with limited resources. My favorite quote is "Today's Readers are Tomorrow's Leaders". I have this on the wall of my classroom, and tell my students daily that I am talking about them! As a teacher who believes in the ability of a child's brain to grasp learning at an amazing rate, I want to provide the most challenging and innovative tools available.
