I have the joy of teaching in an ICT kindergarten class, at a Title I school. My students are an enthusiastic bunch who are inquisitive, eager to learn, and work very hard! My school and classroom serves a racially, ethnically, religiously, and socioeconomically diverse population.
The future starts in my class!
My classroom is always working on building community. Students learn to share, communicate and respect one another in my classroom. As I guide these students toward becoming successful community leaders, I am preparing them for their future. Students will need to read, write,and solve problems.
For kindergarten, playtime is a thing of the past and in order for them to develop the socialization skills needed to communicate, and share they need to be able to have some time to engage and play with each other.
My Project
Children learn in various ways, with an iPad in my classroom, my wonderful students would be able to practice basic math facts and to use sequentially accelerating math programs to expand their math skills and knowledge..
Kindergarten students are consumers of information, knowledge and ideas.
Technology teaches students independent thinking skills. With these tablets my students will be able to independently access academic apps to strengthen their math, and literacy skills and to feed their hunger for answers to their many questions.
An iPad is very engaging to children and a great academic tool when used correctly. The iPad can bring endless possibilities into my classroom.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
