I teach a group of 24 very tech savvy 2nd and 3rd graders. We have a unique classroom model where students get to pick various learning spaces throughout the day that work best for them. My students are frequently engaged in 21st century learning and communication through a small collection of iPads and Chromebooks as well as Google Apps for Education and Schoology. Our goal is to increase the number of Chromebooks from 4 to 12 as we begin using Google Apps for Education more and more.
