My Students

Our school is in Brooklyn, NY, it is a bilingual school of students from Hispanic and Haitian background. Not to mention the fact that we have a multitude students from other countries around the world (Africa, Asia and Yehmen) that also attend our school.

Approximately 90% of our students receive free or reduce lunch, and many of which come from non-English speaking homes.

My class consist of 25 energetic and curious student who need the opportunity to reach their learning goal, by having access to 21st century technology,

My Project

It is impossible to teach 21st century skills to students without 21st century tools such as technology. This year I will not have computer or any other form of technology for my students to use. To enhance there learning I would love to incorporate at least 5 computers as a small group research lab in the classroom, to be used for social studies research and English language arts online reading program and mathematics programs.

Technology will be a valuable tool for the more reluctant learner, it will serve as a motivator for those students who may not be easy to engage.

If I had the 5 computer for my students use, I could use this station to draw the students into instruction each day. Because some of my students do not have access to a computer at home, therefor it is important that I provide this access to technology in the classroom.
