Working with students with special needs, we as teachers do everything we can to assist them. Technology is a great help in this area. With the Chromebooks and microphones, my students who have difficulties putting their thoughts on paper or who have fine motor issues can now speak their thoughts to be transferred to text. This eliminates the frustration they feel not getting their thoughts down on paper and gives them the tools they need to complete their writing assignments and feel successful. The Chromebook can also be used to zoom the text in for students who have problems reading small print. For students who speak English as a second language the computers can translate text into their home language. Students who have difficulty reading can use the computers to listen to stories and have directions read to them through text-to-speech. State testing is done on the computer and having computers in the classroom would open doors for my students to become familiar with the skills necessary to take the test as well as meeting their diverse needs throughout the year.
