My Project

Help us make our classroom space more engaging and inviting. The use of computers, tablets, and other technology aids some students with their voice in the classroom. It also engages other students who would not normally participate in the lessons to come out of their shells. Each child is different and learns in different ways, having the technology piece helps adjust the curriculum plans so that it can best fit each student. This would really make a difference during small group instructional time with reading and showing videos with educational content.

Help us turn our traditional lessons into engaging and interactive lessons for the students.

Students naturally engage and participate more when computers are involved in the learning process. Help us make learning fun when using programs like CleverKids, Epic, and DuoLingo. This will also serve as a protector for individual student files, pictures and more. The computer provides us with endless opportunities for utility.
