Kindergarteners are growing up in a rapidly changing world. With technology like iPads, my students will be able to learn how to self research STEM projects, use apps for learning basic reading and mathematics skills, as well as practice questions that will help them prepare for standardized tests. My students will use these every day to read, practice math skills, progress monitor their growth, etc. My students need access to the best technology to keep up with more developed, and fully funded neighborhoods and school districts around the country. Chicago Public schools are showing the fastest growth in student achievement across the country; imagine what they could do with REAL technology!
