Tech Literacy is a necessary skill in today's world. Students will be able to increase their skill by having regular access to technology in order to practice typing and researching valid sources. It will also be helpful preparation for end of year exams, which are consistently given on computers, with more tools to use each year. Students can explore their passion for reading through the use of computers. Book clubs, podcasts, and recommendations are just a click away. This opportunity can expand their joy around reading and simultaneously help their reading level grow. The more time spent in text, the more aggressive growth will occur. When you are facing obstacles like learning disabilities and being over 5 years behind in reading level ability from the rest of your classmates, school isn't a place where you often feel successful. However, I do everything I can, to be a creative extremist, to provide opportunities, to find what each student loves, in order to change struggle to strength.
