My students are creative, thoughtful and full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically. Truly, they are my inspiration!
Tools like the whiteboards will do well to enable alternate means of participating.
Each child in my classroom absolutely loves learning, although the method and environment in which they learn best vary greatly. We incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work, and alternative seating and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are! They are truly an incredible group, and I am so lucky and thankful to have a new group of learners that are excited and ready to learn each year!
My Project
These materials will make our classroom that much more efficient. With each item we will be able to interact with each other, with technology, and/or with curriculum more efficiently.
From the timer, to the white boards, to the Smart board presentation tool, we will be accessing information more smoothly, intelligently, and thoroughly.
For some of my students, raising their hand and participating is an extremely daunting task. Because of this, I plan on implementing white boards to facilitate "silent" participation that engages students in a physical as well as cognitive manner. In conjunction with the Smart board presentation tool, I will be able to be where I need to be to reach who I need to reach.
