My Students

"I am a champion of learning in every way..." This is part of our school creed that our students recite every week during our morning assembly. Everyone in our class is trying their best to soar academically, artistically, and peacefully because they know they are the champions of learning.

My fourth grade classroom consists of students who are excited about learning and aim to please.

Unfortunately with lack of technology in the classroom, the students are unable to reach their full potential and obtain the full benefits that technology has to offer. Having most of our students get free or reduced lunch due to their low socio-economic status, my students have limited access to computers in the computer lab (Students are able to use them once a week on a rotating basis). Having iPads designated to my classroom will make it possible to build this experience into my daily schedule to focus on increasing my students’ oral reading fluency levels. This will result in more confident students who enjoy reading with increased fluency and improved reading comprehension.

My Project

There are many different reasons why I would like to have iPads in my classroom. Since a lot of my students are working on or below grade level, iPads would allow me to present concepts in a more visually engaging and appealing way. I would be able to utilize apps that would help my students with specific skills and use learning games to reinforce the skills I teach. The use of an iPad is not only motivating, but it is much easier to differentiate learning for each child. Students can learn at their own pace and work on the skills they need most.

By donating iPads to our classroom, you will give my students opportunities they wouldn't otherwise have.

These iPads would provide my students with differentiated practice for the skills they need most and make learning fun!
