  • 21st Century Tech and Beyond!

    Funded Jun 27, 2019

    Thank you so much for your generous donations towards our classroom. We are currently in a technological era where many of our children learn best from not only each other, but through technology. With the use of the kindles, my students are able to engage in a variety of learning games/activities to boost their comprehension and interest in learning! In addition to the kindles, the iPad assists with classroom management, through the use of Class Dojo, making parent communication easier than ever before.

    My students were most excited to be able to use keep up with 21st century initiatives and partake in various online games, such as Kahoot, to assist them in their learning. One student in particular was elated that she was finally able to use a tablet like she had seen her friends use.

    I cannot begin to express how thankful I am for the gift of technology that you have given to our classroom, because "thank you" simply wouldn't be enough.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Sherrill

Learning is a constantly revolving door, with more and more opportunities requiring the full use and knowledge of technology. With access to up to date technology, our lessons can be even more engaging. In our science classroom, the need to use tablets, and fully loaded iPads will increase the exposure to high quality hands-on, inquiry based learning. The tablets also allow students of this generation to learn in a way that is more comfortable to them: using technology! The usage of these materials would also make learning games, such as Kahoot, more intriguing as more students will have access to a device, versus a 1:6 ratio. At the end of each science unit students are presented with a task that requires them to go through each step of the Engineering Process. By having access to the iPads students will have the opportunity to research and compose drafts of their project with the built-in high graphics visuals, functions and editing capabilities that they possess. Additionally, there have been many activities that could have been more engaging had my students been able to take their learning outdoors or throughout the building. Having iPads and tablets will enable our class to be mobile and flexible. With current technology the learning possibilities are endless and I know that it will drive my students to enjoy learning even more.
