My Students

"Be the change you want to see in the world, " Mahatma Gandhi said, and my students apply this quote in my classroom and dream big every day. My students do not have the technology that is required in on a daily basis. They need to incorporate technology and be able to have access to many books.

My students are eager to use computers in our classroom.

The school does not provide the computers necessary for our children to look for specific reading materials and to practice their reading skills on a daily basis. They are smart children that enjoy reading and would benefit from the Kindle Fire.

My Project

Having the Kindle Fire tablets will enhance our technology and reading program because the children will have access to many books that are available online. They will be able to take it to their tables and used it as a reading center. We have limited space in the classroom and the kindles are very portable for the first grade students.

The students will benefit having the kindles because technology has become very important in this century.

The children will have access to fun learning games. This will have a great impact in their learning and daily lives.
