My students are children with specific learning disorders. They are in a regular education classroom and I go in the different classrooms to work with them and any other student that is having a difficult time learning. We are a Title I school, which means about 93% of the student population is on free lunch. I work with first, second, third, and fourth graders. I really love working with them and I try daily to think of something motivational to do. These students are so sweet and your heart just goes out to them. Some of them I have been working with for three years. To see the growth that they have made just brings a smile to my face. I want to use more technology in the rooms. Since technology is the big thing these days many of the activities I do gets the students so excited and involved. The netbook would be easy for me to transport from room to room, too. My students don't speak loud so with the wireless microphone it will be easier to hear them.
