My Students

My students are engaged learners who are interested in infusing technology into their learning but are hindered by the lack of resources in school and home. Adding technological resources to the classroom will allow us to reach our goal of becoming 21st century learners, where we are ready to grow.

My students come from all backgrounds and are diversified.

Attending a title 1 school that is 96% free and reduced lunch many students are economically disadvantaged. As teachers, we come together to provide resources for our students to give them every opportunity to learn from current resources, but oftentimes school funding is needed in other areas. In order to have students have access to technology that they are lacking at home I am looking to bring those resources such as iPad minis into the classroom, thus allowing my students to use technology and curriculum together.

My Project

The resources that I am seeking are (6) iPad minis which will be used in a small group setting monitored by the teacher (myself). Students will have access to e-text books for additional curriculum support that aligns to our current reading, math, social studies, and science series all through iTunes. Also, students will have access to e-books for reading that will foster a love of reading in our classroom and school. Students will have the ability to view flipped model classroom content that is recorded on iTunes and YouTube by me for instructional purposes, thus giving them the opportunity to watch and re-watch lessons taught by me on specific content. Students will use augmented reality technology on their iPads such as the Aurasma app to create augmented reality projects for reading instead of book reports, along with creating QR codes for personal introductions to visitors to the classroom.

Donations to this project will improve my classroom by through the addition of iPads that students do not have access to at home or in the school at this time.

Students will have additional avenues to explore through a digital world via iTunes where they can discover new ways to foster a love of learning and reading. Students lives will change for the better by keeping up with 21st century learners at more affluent schools, ensuring that all learners are indeed college and career ready.
