My middle school students are tapped into technology during their free time away from school. It is time for my classroom to tap into their minds using modern technology. When technology is used, my students are energetic and eager to learn. Research shows that learning increases with the use of technology in the classroom. I teach of variety of students, some from low income households that don’t have access to technology. My goal as a teacher is to provide every avenue possible to provide the best education I can to my students. Using technology is one of those avenues.
