My Students

Students are inundated with technology and teachers must change the way we deliver curriculum. We must compete with YouTube, Xbox, iPods, and smartphones to keep students engaged. Why fight technology when we can use it?

They love to learn!

It is up to me to bring in as much supplemental materials as possible to stimulate their minds and encourage their exploration of new concepts. My students attend a school where Title 1 funding is not available so we as teachers must supplement by finding ways to help them get the required materials.

My Project

I plan to use Microsoft Word/Office to incorporate technology into my classroom. With Microsoft Word/Office my students will be able to create word documents, PowerPoint and Excel spread sheets. Students will be able to publish their final writing assignments and hang them up for all to see.

After they "oooh and aaah" over each lesson, their minds often leap beyond the programs to insights I could never have planned.

Your support would open the window for their explorations and power their innovations.
