My Students

I teach 6th grade math general education and inclusion math students. My students live in an area of high poverty. Students often do not have access to internet and computers at home. They are at a disadvantage in terms of online activities and enrichment opportunities.

My students struggle with skill deficits that require additional enrichment, differentiation, and modifications to overcome.

There are many wonderful online programs designed to bridge these deficit gaps. By supporting this project, donors will make a huge impact in the success of the students.

My Project

After obtaining iPads, my students will be able to utilize Kahoot, IXL, and math facts practice to enhance their mathematical skills. Additionally, students would be able to practice typing skills, research, and participate in online games to provide alternative ways to meet curriculum demands. Students will use these iPads throughout the class period in an effort to have greater classroom differentiation. Each student learns at a different pace. Access to multiple learning formats will my students to excel in areas where they once struggled. Students will be able to work at their own pace and receive more individualized instruction in the classroom.
