Having access to online resources on a daily basis, rather than twice weekly, will encourage and support the growth of my students threefold! First, it will be exciting and engaging and this will push them to WANT to learn more and do better. Second, it will be a confidence builder. The skills they will practice and take on with the use of the IPads will boost confidence, will then show more academic growth over the school year and ultimately prove a success when they feel ready for 5th grade. And third, and most importantly, they will be surrounded by the belief that learning is powerful and actually can be fun!!! It will become ingrained and become part of their mindset.
