My Students

This year I am working with 25 wonderful and very curious Kindergartners. They are coming in with a wealth of knowledge of I-Pads, Cell phones and Computer technology. Even though the school community consist of low income families, their backgrounds are from various cultures and most of them use English as a second language. It is imperative as a teacher to promote and continue this update technology within the classroom.

Technology is a tool for the way information is acquired and utilized in today's’ classroom teaching for improving learning.

My Project

Currently I am using outdated desktops computers that are very… slow and hinder my students ability to use the internet. They are also very bulky and occupy a great deal of space in an already crowded classroom. Therefore, I would like to have new innovated laptops. Most home today use new technologies (i.e. Laptop, iPad, Cell Phone). The children already have the knowledge of using these devices with little supervision. I want to continue this learning process in the classroom. It is very important I incorporate or synchronize this process into a home to school setting.

These new devices will give us greater access to the internet, free up more classroom work space and provide proficient time management with academic activities.

Using these devices will give my students the choice and flexibility to move about the classroom in a more relax environment and also enable them to work with others.
