My Students

My students have always been a rich, diverse mix of different cultures, who all come together with one common goal: to learn. Going to school in an urban setting, they come from all manner of backgrounds and walks of life to learn as a community. As a special education teacher, it is imperative that I offer differentiation into the classroom because many of my students are academically years behind.

We hope to have art materials and new technology to encourage our alternative ways of learning mathematics for this changing global economy.

It will not do them justice to just give them packets of worksheets to complete. They need differentiated teacher instruction to help guide them through necessary skills.

My Project

Research shows that students find more success in school when they use technology. This is especially true with middle school students, who mainly believe their lives revolve around technology. With our technology driven world, these students need to become fluent with technology in order to find success later in life. Unfortunately, many of my students do not have access to technology at home. I am responsible for preparing these kids for what’s coming next in their lives, but I don’t currently have the resources to do that.

My students will use these tablets as a learning tool to improve their math understanding, fluency and ability.

These tablets will allow more students to interact with the online tutors at Zeal.com, get individualized instruction with the iReady program, complete individualized assignments on Khan academy and Prodigy, and complete Kahoot and Quizizz quizzes. These tablets will transform the way our classroom works and help our students stay more engaged with a competitive edge. We currently have 2 working student computers for 30 students to use and rotate through in 45 minutes. That gives each student 2 minutes of time to work with the technology. This just doesn’t work.

This grant will not be limited to benefiting a single student but all our students to come. We hope that you will be able to give! Thank you for your time.
