Having Kindles in the classroom will greatly improve my students ability to access technology. The use of technology is becoming a more and more integral part of education. Through the use of Kindles, my students will be able to increase their vocabulary and reading skills. With the diverse number of educational apps, my students will have the opportunity and ability to increase their potential for learning. As the push for technology becomes increasing more prevalent, it is important that I maintain my students' ability to access and use devices that will help with their learning. By understanding and mastering the different types of devices, my students are gaining knowledge that they can use beyond their year in my classroom. The ability to manipulate different technology devices is a skill that will empower them in my classroom and in the future.
