I am fortunate enough to work in a school with wonderful technology resources. For my students who come from low socioeconomic backgrounds, this provides them the opportunity to have access to so many enriching programs. Having headphones for my students will allow them to fully experience all the technology has to offer, and give them the chance to work independently within the classroom. Being able to sit in a comfy part of the room, and focus on their own work on their tablets without the noise of their classmates as a distraction would make a huge difference to my students. Mathematic manipulatives are an extremely important part of the learning process in third grade. Having white boards for my students would allow them to easily participate in guided practice, whether that is from their seats, in groups around the room, or gathered together on the rug. The presence of whiteboards would allow me to expand my guided practice with quick checks, and allow my students to share out their answers/work with their classmates.
