My Project

My third graders love to learn! They especially love to learn new things through research and reading new books. The students that I teach are diverse learners. My class consists of students from a variety of cultural backgrounds, students with disabilities, and a large percentage of English language learners.

I am requesting these tablets for a variety of reasons.

My third graders would use them to research their nonfiction topics during writing workshop. Also, students would be able to use them during our word work independent center. Additionally, student would be able to explore more books on these tablets using reading apps during reading workshop.

Students would benefit from using these tablets in many areas of learning in the classroom!
