Technology is such a large part of education in the 21st century classroom. Today's students are much more savvy with technology. We are fortunate to have four desktop computers and a SMART board in our classroom. Yet, with limited computers that are not always reliable it is hard to plan lessons and activities. The addition of tablets would enhance learning in our classroom. These tablets will be used to improve my students math and literacy skills. There are learning sites that students will be able to access on these tablets. The tablets will be used for interventions and enrichment opportunities for students.
