My Students
Remember what it was like to have an overhead projector in the class? Thankfully, technology has evolved and students are excited about using technology in the classroom. Students are preparing to become 21st Century Learners, and in this journey they will need an iPad Mini, Keyboard, and Stylus.
My students are full of excitement about Second Grade and being in school!
They are sweet and ready to learn new things every day. Our school is fairly new, it opened five years ago and is lacking many instructional materials, including classroom technology for the students to utilize. Our school has a moderate poverty level, about 40% of our students receive a free or reduced lunch. My goal is to fill our classroom with as many technology opportunities as possible to help our young students meet the goals of becoming 21st century learners and global competitors.
My Project
Students will use the iPad Mini in many different ways. It will help to engage my reluctant readers, by allowing them to view and read interactive, digital books. Students will also use the iPad Mini by utilizing the keyboard to create creative writing projects and practice key collaboration skills with their peers. The stylus will help the students navigate throughout the education apps on the iPad Mini.
This project will improve my classroom by increasing the engagement level of my students through the use of technology.
These students have grown up with personal technology at home and are more apt to do their best work when given technology, rather than a pencil and paper.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
