My Project

I am a 4th grade ICT teacher. My classroom population ranges from ELL learners, students with IEPs who require various supports and differentiation and students who are general education all at or below grade level. Our students come from countries all around the world where English is a second language to most to all of them.

This year we are really focusing on working with devices on programs that create individualized instruction for each child.

These lessons are based on data and benchmark assessments to help students learn at their level. We are also preparing to transition to taking all assessments online to mirror the NYS exams in reading and math.

With the help of headphones my students will be able to totally tune into these lessons and assessments without the distraction of hearing other students devices around them.
