I teach kindergarten students who are very enthusiastic and inquisitive learners. Their backgrounds are varied, from affluent to poverty level. Some are ESOL students, and some have special needs. Our school is large, with over 900 students in Pre-K through 5th grade. Our diverse population makes us special.
Our curriculum focuses on student inquiry-based learning with a global perspectivewith the essential hands-on learning.
They love to play in centers to learn financial literacy through a grocery store, create in an art center, build in a block and game center, listen to stories on a computer, read books in the reading center, and explore in the science center. They learn through play and by doing. Most of our daily instruction is in small groups using many different hands-on materials. Art and creativity play an important part in our classroom. We use lots of technology while creating stories and art.
My Project
My students enjoy writing stories and creating masterpieces on our iPads. They also enjoy taking pictures of things they have done in the classroom to preserve the memory. Keeping the picture or the writing or the artwork on the camera roll of the device is not very satisfactory.
My young learners want a tangible piece of their work so being able to print their creations and photos in color is necessary.
They will be able to take these home and share with their families. Much of our learning in kindergarten is not paper and pencil so this will help include families in their learning. This eco friendly printer's pictures will generate much excitement and enthusiam in my young learners.
