Also, I am better able to catch the student voice. The great part is that they get to feel like a real pro-gamer when they play and commentate on their gaming.

While many donors may be familiar with using technology at home, it plays a very different and powerful role in a school setting—especially for young learners who are still building foundational skills in reading, math, language, and social-emotional development. In the classroom, the tablet becomes far more than a device for entertainment. It is a structured learning tool that provides targeted academic support, engages students who need extra motivation, and allows every child to learn at a pace that fits their needs.\r\n\r\nThe technology helps my students learn by giving them immediate feedback, step-by-step guidance, and practice opportunities they cannot always receive in whole-group instruction. For example, students working on phonics can hear letter sounds repeated clearly, practice blending through interactive games, and track their own progress. Students who are beginning readers can listen to stories read aloud while following the text, which strengthens early literacy skills. In math, children can manipulate virtual objects, solve problems with visual support, and build fluency through fun, game-like practice. The tablet also supports English language learners by offering visuals, vocabulary reinforcement, and audio cues that help them better understand lessons. Because each app adapts to each child’s level, the tablet serves as a personalized tutor that adjusts to what they need in real time.\r\n\r\nWhat excites my students most about this new technology is how fun and empowering it feels. To them, the tablet transforms learning into something joyful and hands-on. They love earning badges, completing levels, and discovering new stories and challenges. Many of my students see the tablet as a reward itself, which naturally motivates them to stay focused and try their best. They also love being able to choose apps that match their interests—whether that’s reading, math, drawing, or early coding. This sense of choice helps them take ownership of their learning and builds independence from an early age.\r\n\r\nSeveral students in particular have shown remarkable growth and enthusiasm because of this technology. One student who struggles with attention during whole-group lessons has become highly focused when using the tablet. The interactive features keep him engaged, and he often completes extra reading activities because he feels successful. Another student, who is learning English as a second language, has built confidence through apps that reinforce vocabulary and pronunciation. She now participates more during class because the tablet has helped her practice language skills at her own pace. A third student, who is typically shy, has discovered a love for digital storytelling. Using simple illustration and narration tools, she has begun creating her own stories—something she was previously too hesitant to try on paper.\r\n\r\nOverall, the Amazon tablet has been a powerful addition to our classroom. It supports personalized learning, boosts student motivation, and gives every child—including those who need extra help—an opportunity to feel successful. This technology has truly helped my first graders grow academically, emotionally, and creatively, and we are deeply grateful for the impact it continues to make each day.","photopaths":null}]
