My Students

I have a large class of 30 active eight to nine year old students. We live in a rural community that has a lot of middle to lower income families. Many of my students have been raised with game systems and technology as a part of their everyday lives. Theses systems are where they spend a lot of their free time since the majority of them come from single parent families, or families where both parents work. Technology has become the go-to daycare. With that in mind my students often have difficulty adjusting to the pace of a classroom. They have trained their minds to multi-task and need an outlet for their excess energy or thought processes.

My students need opportunities to grow and develop important social skills, this is why I am looking for opportunities to help my student engage in problem solving and social activities that can be accomplished simultaneously with learning.

Many of my students lack basic social skills and/or the ability to work with others or in group settings. I try to allow my students the opportunity to learn and develop these skills through S.T.E.A.M. activities, cooperative learning, and even playing team games.

My Project

Much of what has happened in the past few years has tempered creativity in students and teachers. School has become predictable to students. Using technology in school has been logging into computer programs and following the directions.

I want to give my students a creative outlet while using technology.

I want to enable my students to create an online design or graphic and be able to have a tactile completed project when they are finished!

This will enable the students in my class to work together and individually to create and design.
