The students in my second grade class walk into the classroom every day full of life, ready to learn, and excited for what is in store for them that day. The students are a hard-working community of learners eager to use technology in every subject!
My students are a diverse group of enthusiastic learners.
There are a range of learners in my classroom, with different abilities and learning styles. The students in my classroom succeed the most when they are invested in their learning and fully engaged. It is my job, as their teacher, to provide the best learning environment for my students. The children learn in our classroom through inquiry-based, hands-on learning experiences. We believe in learning through inquiry and children make meaning as they work through various experiences. I see these materials as a valuable tool for not only fostering excitement around engineering and technology, but also for supporting communication and problem solving amongst my students.
My Project
These Chromebooks will be used on a daily basis for a variety of subjects and purposes. With these new Chromebooks, I would be able to get more students connected to technology each day. The Chromebooks would allow for enough technology for station work in my classroom during reading, writing, and math. Currently my school does not have enough devices to provide 1-to-1 technology for our students. By adding four Chromebooks we will be able to be closer to 2-to-1 for all of our activities in our classroom.
Being familiar with technology is such a vital skill for students growing up in this digital world.
As a teacher, I want to prepare my students to succeed and feel comfortable navigating technology as I prepare them for the world outside of my classroom. By providing students with these Chromebooks, I am confident they will become responsible digital citizens.
