These three laptops will make a huge difference in our classroom. Currently, we have zero computer access in our classroom. Just having a few computers in my class will allow us to have small group intervention where students will work on research reports, type essays, work on their reading and writing fluency. The majority of my students do not have access to computers at home or access to the internet. Facilitating computer access would allow my students to get motivated to complete their tasks because they would be able to move on to the new computer center. Having a variety of different stations for children who are easily distracted would give them another opportunity to learn and apply the content they are learning in a different matter.
