My Students

I am a third grade teacher in Pennsylvania. My classroom is made up of 30 eager third graders. I also have a wide range of reading and math abilities in my classroom. I am the teacher with the ESL-friendly classroom. I would like to accommodate more students who speak different languages.

My reading levels range from pre-kindergarten to fifth grade.

It's important that I read with these children every day in order to get them on grade level by the end of the year. All my students get free or reduced-price lunch, and all these children love coming to school.

My Project

My students love learning through the use of technology in the classroom and at home. We are in need of an iPad Pro for extending our curriculum. This new technology will allow students to play interactive learning games for all subject areas, to project their work onto the classroom Smartboard, to use a variety of educational apps, and to complete creative lessons and projects. Our old iPads are all outdated and no longer in good shape. Many of them had to be given to Apple, and there was no way to fix them since the students used them so much and for so long.

My students would be able to use the iPad Pro to complete classroom assignments during workstations, to work on Math problem solving along with their peers, and to practice their motor skills with writing applications and note taking.

The iPad Pro will also help my students with their research skills for Reading, Writing, Science, Math, and STEM activities. They will be able to go on research-based interventions to practice the skills they are lacking. The ESL students will be able to pratice language on here as well.

An iPad Pro gives both the teacher and students flexibility in the classroom and virtual learning process. Most importantly my students will be able to demonstrate and access their learning through technology, and our future leaders need this, especially now.
