My Kindle's for Kinder's project will bring my classroom into the modern age. Student's in my Title 1 school come from low income households and often miss out on the benefits of educational technology such as tablets and laptops. Having these tablets in our classroom will allow for endless opportunities across the content areas. These tablets will be used for alphabet and phonemic awareness practice, math application games, listening centers and the list goes on. These tablets will provide an opportunity to interact with technology that most of these children would not get to experience otherwise. I hope to provide as many real world experiences to my students as possible. The luxury of classroom tablets would have an amazing impact on our class. Another tool I am eager to implement in my classroom is Math Tool Boxes. In my math block I encourage my students to solve problems in multiple ways. Each individual child has a unique thinking and problem solving process. The math tool boxes I plan to build will contain a variety of manipulatives such as counters, tens frames, snap cubes, number lines, number bond mats and much more. The pencil boxes will be use to house all of these materials and allow the students to have the freedom to chose the math manipulatives that will work for them to solve various problems. This will foster their mathematical thinking and allow them to explore math concepts instead of learning a one size fits all process to solving problems. Once fully funded this project will allow my students above all the freedom to explore in their learning and allow their confidence to grow as they learn.
