My Students

My students are inquisitive young people. They thrive on adventure and exposure to new experiences.

I have twenty-eight 4th grade students who come from a variety of cultural backgrounds.

Some of these students are English Language Learners. Students in this class also range in academic ability from Gifted students to students on Individualized Education Programs. While many of these students have access to technology at home, several do not.

My Project

My students will get great use out of these requested nine Acer Chromebooks which will be used to explore new topics with access to multiple educational websites. We will visit virtual locations that most of these students would not have the opportunity to do in reality. This generation is expected to learn to research using different methods than our generation was. They need access to the web to acquire these skills. Additionally, they will work on keyboarding and word processing skills. As my students are only three years, from entering middle school, it is my responsibility to start building these foundations now. My goal is to have students feel confident in their technology skills by the time they are expected to use it fluently for schoolwork. Additionally, teaching them how use the Internet safely and with integrity in mind, is one of my main goals when teaching technology.

These Acer Chromebooks will help the students meet their Common Core standards.

They will give my students the skills they need to gain confidence needed to be competitive as they continue their education.
