This past year, our school was fortunate enough to receive three Chromebooks in each classroom. Thanks to our PTA this technology has allowed my students to use our at-home reading program during the school day as well as my students now have access to learning websites to help enrich all areas of our curriculum. Many of these websites offer oral directions or fun learning sounds to hold my first graders attention. Also, our at-home computer based reading program has a component for my students to listen to books at their own reading level. Unfortunately, my students do not have headphones to properly listen to the activity they are working on without disrupting the rest of the class. Having their own set of headphones will provide my students will more learning opportunities without disrupting their peers.
