My Students

As a Special Education teacher in a low-income/high poverty school, my students are faced with many challenges. The majority of my students are English Language learners who do not all learn and progress the same way. Differentiating is important in order to reach all the needs of my students.

Engaging students with the use of technology can help students foster a love for learning.

Many of my students do not have a home computer or technology at home. The classroom gives them an opportunity to experience new technology.

My Project

Technology in the classroom has brought so much joy to the students. Our daily lessons are more interactive and engaging. Students enjoy the use of incorporating technology in our reading and math lessons each day. Students are enhancing their math skills, fluency and comprehension. They enjoy reading books and doing research. Unfortunately we do not have a safe area to charge and protect our tablets.

Having a cabinet to charge and protect our tablets will come to great use in our classroom.

Students can easily access the tablets and they will always be charged and ready to be used each day.
