My Students

Cheering is something that has been a part of my life. I have actually used it in my classroom to help excite the children, and I am certain my students and I would cheer to have 3 new iPads in our classroom!

I teach Kindergarten at a Pre K-5 school with over 500 students.

The parental support is very important to our families in the community. In addition to that, our school has wonderful and caring leaders and teachers. Let me also add that we have the most wonderful students! I have been a Kindergarten teacher for many years now and, despite obstacles in the teaching field, I still love teaching today. Our school is one that knows the power of technology in the classroom, and we work hard every year to gain more technology resources for our students. With small and large grants, we keep striving to bring more to our school and children. In short, our wonderful students are and will always be our top priority.

My Project

As a teacher whose Kindergarten students use effective technology lessons daily, it is obvious that tablets are truly starting to hit their stride in classrooms. With that said, I also know the importance of focusing on individual student levels. With the use of a tablet, my students could work in our iPad center to strengthen skills and be creative. In my opinion, growth should always be a priority, and it is something I strive for. Technology has helped me achieve that goal in many ways. Our school set up an iPad website a couple of years ago. The site has links to free apps. My plan would be to utilize that to help lessen learning gaps with my students. We live in a technology society that embraces new technologies at hand. I know increasing technology resources for our students is productive. I plan to connect an iPad to my interactive whiteboard and projector. I know my students would thoroughly love having three iPad mini tablets and cases to use daily.

As an elementary teacher, I know that technology can play a vital role in the classroom.

The use of three iPads in a center would help my Kindergarten students reinforce skills. You can help us by donating a trio of iPads to my Kindergarten students. Please help us cheer for three new iPad mini 3 tablets!
