My Project

Kindles provide access to a vast library of digital books, allowing students to explore a wide range of texts conveniently. They offer features like built-in dictionaries and note-taking capabilities, fostering active engagement with the material. With adjustable font sizes and background lighting, Kindles accommodate different reading preferences and enhance readability, promoting comprehension and retention.

To cultivate a love for reading by providing students with easy access to a variety of texts aligned with their interests and curriculum requirements.

To foster critical thinking and analytical skills through active reading, annotation, and discussion facilitated by Kindle's note-taking features.

My students are incredibly diverse, each bringing unique backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives to the classroom. They demonstrate resilience and perseverance in the face of challenges, often overcoming obstacles to pursue their academic goals. My students possess a thirst for knowledge and a curiosity about the world around them, driving them to explore and inquire beyond the confines of the curriculum.
