My Project

While I haven't met my new students yet, I am looking forward to getting to know them in a few weeks. I have been looking for a tool that children may use independently and receive instant feedback.

Kindergartners love to gain independence as they learn to navigate the classroom.

Students will be able to choose from varying activities that will reinforce what is being taught in the classroom. The power pen activities may also be used in small group activities. Students will be exposed to many early literacy and math concepts.
