My Students

Help us save paper in making copies and time wasted to write our ideas and stories on the board.

The students in our class love to come to school and learn.

They are eager readers and writers. These students come from many economic backgrounds and experiences. They are respectful and kind to each other. Eight and nine year old children are fascinated by technology and use it with ease.

My Project

Using an Elmo in our class will allow all students to share writings with other students. This projection machine allows students to easily see other students' work to assist, edit, and complement good writing. This Elmo will also be used in all subjects to enhance learning.

This project is a high priority for our classroom and would be shared with two other teachers.

As students learn the basics, they also need to be comfortable with many different types of technology.
