Funded Aug 2, 2016Dear Donors:
Once again, I want to thank you for your donation to my SPED Techies. As we know technology is the way of the world and we must embrace technology with an open mind. Most of my students can operate computers or telephones better than their parents which tells me, they can learn. The key to keeping my students engaged is through technology.
The LeapFrog is beneficial to two of my students(ID and FD)that perform below grade level and exhibit negative behavior but the LeapFrog provides them with the self-control and engagement. Once on the LeapFrog, they are quiet, engaged and independent.
The mini-pads provide a range of educational games, interactive reading and math programs for the more independent student. The two different types of technology allows for my students instruction to be differentiated.
Even though my students have various learning disabilities, technology is the same for everyone and it allows my students to learn without any restrictions.”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Owens
