My Students

My students enter our classroom ready to be part of a community that cares and works hard. The children are motivate greatly when they get to use technology.

The students in my building are considered Title One students based on the poverty level.

Many of them do not have technology to use at home.

Each day students are using technology and they are loving learning more than without using it.

The students all appreciate when organizations and other people donate to our classroom. We have had donations before that help the children get more excited about learning. There is nothing better than seeing their faces light up when someone completely unknown donates items to us.

My Project

Technology is integrated into all aspects of learning in our classroom. We thrive on working with each other to learn new things. These Chrome books would help us work together with the latest technology and be relevant with our learning.

We would use the Chrome book for research, review games, and to complete mandated testing.

Students will also be able to received more individualized instruction and practice. Students will be completing projects using flip grid, power points, and other tools.

When students have to rely on looking information up without technology they are not as engaged in the learning process. Having more technology will help the students view real word videos to assist with learning.
