This will be my 4th year in 3rd grade and I am loving it! Third grade is a year of many firsts with testing and the use of Google Classroom for many learning opportunities and assignments.
My students love to access our classroom Chromebooks for research and online learning, which allows many of them a chance to travel to places and see things they may never see otherwise.
We are a small rural K-8 school with students from low to medium economic backgrounds. Our school is located away from city living and offers students small class sizes and a true family atmosphere. Many times our students struggle with supplies for school and bringing headphones or a computer mouse is something parents can't afford.
My Project
These headphones and computer mice will help my students as they continue to move into digital learning. Testing and learning are taking place every day in our classroom and some students struggle with touchpads on Chromebooks. Headphones will ensure all students have equal opportunities to the online activities and learning sites we use, without worrying about buying headphones.
In this 21st-century learning environment, I want all my students regardless of economic background to have accessories that help them achieve their best!
These headphones and mice will be stored in the classroom and numbered so each student will have easy access to them when needed.
Along with our classroom Chromebooks, students will use these items on state testing which will be done solely online next year.
