My students LOVE technology. We are fortunate enough to have a Promethean board in our classroom but we need engaging books and videos to use with it! Any lesson becomes ten times more engaging when technology is involved. Please, help my students learn with technology!
My students are attending a brand new school this year.
Our previous school was closed but luckily I got to move with them! These kiddos love reading, they devour books across all genres. However, they haven't read with technology! I want to provide my students with every opportunity to engage in, and be excited about reading and learning.
My Project
Every student in my class is amazingly unique. In particular, they each have different learning styles and preferences and it is my job to plan lessons where they can access content in a variety of ways. This project will allow me to do that in a way that will make lessons more fun and exciting. BrainPop is a digital courseware resource that will allow me to use interactive activities and videos to support all common core standards covered in 2nd grade. This extra support will make all the difference for my visual learners and will allow all students to access content in a fun and exciting way. The interactive eBooks I have requested are aligned to our science units for the year. I hope to use these books during lessons, but also I want my students to explore them during independent reading time. Reluctant readers shy away from books, but interactive eBooks will get them excited about reading and books! Please, help my students access content through our classroom technology!
This project will get my students excited about reading and learning, what more could a teacher ask for?
We have all of this wonderful technology but it is only useful if we have meaningful ways for students to use it. Please, allow my students to excel this year through reading and learning with technology!
