My Students

Our RSP classroom is full of color, creativity, and energy. We work on engaging projects and tasks at small kidney tables in small groups throughout the day. We have inside jokes and laughs, but the work hard when it is time to learn. I am proud of the camaraderie we have created!

The students in my RSP classroom are in third, fourth, and fifth grade and receive special education services in both language arts and mathematics.

While they enjoy being in their general education classroom, they absolutely love coming to the RSP classroom and working on projects that meet their instructional level and help them feel successful. My students are all creative, love formulating new ideas, and truly have a love for learning. Unfortunately, not many of my students have access to technology at home, therefore with the requested iPads I hope to consistently incorporate technology in the RSP classroom to further their literacy knowledge.

My Project

The project will make a significant difference in my classroom by creating additional means in which students can engage in literacy. My students will use the iPad requested in various ways. It will be used to support and make the language arts curriculum in reading and writing interactive and engaging. It is my hope that the requested iPad will allow the students to listen, read, and interact with stories that are at their instructional level. I hope my students will also learn to develop their typing skills when writing essays and eventually become digitally literate. The iPads will not only increase comprehension, reading capabilities, and writing--but it will also help these students reach their full potential and become digital citizens.

Students will be excited to use the iPad and will be able to access the language arts curriculum in ways they are not able to in the general education classroom.

They will gain a new appreciation for reading, writing, and listening and it will also assist in teaching students to take responsibility of their language arts learning as well as taking care of classroom equipment.
