My Students

"Every child deserves a champion: an adult who will never give up on them, who understand the power of connection and insists they become the best they can be." Rita Pierson. This quote reflects the diverse needs my students possess and how important education needs to be for them.

The children who make up my school are mostly African American or Hispanic.

A large majority of the students are English Language Learners or English as a Second Language. A large percentage of the students have free or reduced lunch and the meals they receive at school are the only meals they get. Students come to school to have a safe place and to learn the true meaning of education. Many students struggle to meet grade level expectations. However, there are students who will meet or exceed their expected level of growth. Teachers deal with many different types of behaviors on a daily basis, and have been flexible enough to constantly change teaching in order to increase student motivation to learn. Many students need to be engaged in their learning in order to be successful. A simple desk and worksheet does not work. Movement, technology and integration have been successful ways in the fight to student success. Each student at this school is unique in their own way.

My Project

Students will be using iPads in order to maximize their learning. I have found that when students are engaged in the use of technology they are motivated to learn and complete assignments. In my classroom I only have three, old, working computers and 2 ipads. In any given year I could have 20-25 students. The students will be using the iPads to integrate social studies and science through various webquest. It will also encourage them to write and research. The iPads are also tools for writing where they make their stories come alive by using digital story boards. Students are also able to use the technique of acceleration by viewing PowerPoint slides for math and previewing what they will learn and practice ahead of time. They also can read books online to prepare for the read aloud ahead. Students success is important in the school I teach from and technology has been the most powerful way to lead them to this.

Having iPads for the classroom will promote student success.

Working in a school, filled with students who come from lower income families, need the engagement and motivation to succeed. With the help of iPads, I can bring them that much closer to achieving success in the classroom and the real world.
