My Project

My first-grade students are curious, eager learners who thrive on hands-on, interactive experiences. They come from diverse backgrounds and have a wide range of learning styles, and I strive to create an engaging classroom environment that meets their needs. A touch screen interactive TV will transform our learning space by making lessons more dynamic, collaborative, and accessible. I work in a low income neighborhood; its important to provide my students with different learn tools to increase their knowledge intake.

With this technology, students can actively participate in literacy, math, and science lessons through interactive games, virtual field trips, and digital storytelling.

It will also allow me to differentiate instruction, ensuring that all students—especially those with learning differences—receive the support they need. My goal is to foster a love of learning by making every lesson engaging and meaningful. This resource will not only boost student engagement but also build 21st-century skills that will benefit them for years to come!
