Students will be able to collaborate using Kindle Fire on reading concepts, using Kahoot online quizzes, MobyMax educational enrichment, audiobooks, and Google Classroom. They will also use the Kindle Fire tablets to create movies and book reviews, which will allow them to bring reading to life and make learning relevant. At our school, students are only allowed access to school-provided technology and must lock up the or cell phones upon entering the school. Although it cuts down on distraction, it causes difficulty for teachers who want to incorporate technology in their classrooms. We only have enough laptops and computers for around 10% of students, so I know adding 10 tablets to my classroom will increase student access to technolog to reach approximately 30% of our 7th graders. I hope to be able to acquire a full class set eventually, but allowing students to share and collaborate in groups of 3 is a great start!
