This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
Can you imagine the excitement of a kindergarten student using an iPod Touch to practice reading and writing in the classroom? Many of my kindergarten students are highly motivated to learn through the use of technology in the classroom. However, our classroom is lacking some of the needed resources
I teach an eager and excited group of kindergarten students at a Title 1 school in Texas.
Many of my students don't have access to technology such as computers or iPods at home. They really look forward to any interaction with computers or other technology at school. Due to limited resources, not all of my students are able to spend time on the computers each day. These two iPod Touches would help all students have individual interaction with technology daily.
My Project
I would be so grateful to have two iPod Touches in my classroom for my students to use. These devices can essentially be used in every subject area. Many different applications are available to download for student use. These applications are interactive and engaging for students. Students would be able to listen to different stories and even be able to record themselves reading! This would help students to improve fluency while reading and confidence.
These iPods would also help me to differentiate instruction to meet the needs of all of my students. All students would have access to games and applications that meet their needs and that are on their level. This will help students to be engaged and boost their confidence.
These iPods touches would be used multiple times a day by multiple students.
I know that my students will love using a new form of technology to learn and practice reading and writing skills. These iPod Touches will provide students with technology experiences that will help them by successful in the 21st century. These iPods would make a huge and wonderful difference in my classroom. Thank you for considering donating to my studentÂÂs' future.
