My Students

We are leaders and creators, artists and engineers, scientists and literary critics, mathematicians and writers. We have a wide range of abilities and talents.

Our third grade class is a diverse community of learners.

They come from a wide background, but all have common goals, to learn and grow. We have been learning about how our brain grows as we do challenging work and that hard work pays off. We seek to become lifelong learners, willing to make mistakes and learn from them.

My Project

With iPads, each student could get a more personal learning path, with their specific needs met. Students could use Epic to find books that are at their reading level. Others could use text to be read to work on fluency.

We are looking to meet every students’ needs, be that our beginner reader who needs extra support and practice, to our fluent readers who are looking for new challenges.

The versatility of iPad could be used in math, as well as reading and even science. The number of applications are endless, as well as the ease of use, will save time and create great engagement.
