My Project

To support student growth and document progress, we need updated technology to access newer early learning apps on an Apple laptop and connect to a large screen for interactive learning.

Apps to support PreK students:

• ABCmouse – Early literacy, math, art, and science activities.

• Endless Alphabet – Vocabulary and letter recognition.

• Starfall ABCs – Phonics and early reading.

• Tiggly Math – Hands-on math learning.

• Epic! – Digital library with age-appropriate books.

• Montessori Numbers – Number sense and counting.

• Khan Academy Kids – Comprehensive early learning in reading, math, and social-emotional skills.

Connecting early learning apps to a big screen offers significant benefits for PreK students. It enhances engagement by making lessons more interactive and visually stimulating, helping young learners stay focused and excited. A larger display allows all students to clearly see content at once, which supports group activities, collaboration, and shared learning experiences.

Apps like ABCmouse, Khan Academy Kids, and Starfall ABCs become more dynamic when projected, encouraging movement, participation, and real-time feedback. It also allows educators to guide students more effectively through lessons, model activities, and celebrate progress together as a class. This fosters a more inclusive, hands-on environment that supports diverse learning styles.
