I value the work and creativity of my students as they work independently during small group time. Often they are eager to share their understanding and discoveries but are not able to do so while I am with other children. Having the Kindle tablets will give my students the capability to digitally document their products. This lets us view and then discuss the process they used, their understanding, and their misconceptions at a later time. My students are encouraged to construct with the STEM kits and are challenged to solve problems that may arise in the real world and before we get the chance to celebrate and take their learning to the next level with opportunities to share and discuss, the momentum for going deeper has been lost. An example of this is when my students were prompted to build a see saw; then construct a structure that would protect the children playing from the sun's rays. Another example would be when, while working with patterns, the students were eager to share the length and the repetitive nature of their patterns. Being able to take a picture and then discuss their thinking at a later time provides documentation of learning and brings authenticity to our learning.
