Students in my kindergarten classroom come to school excited about learning. Most of my students come from low-income families, and all the students at my school receive free breakfast and lunch. This background can mean that students’ families cannot afford to purchase needed school supplies. Unfortunately, some of the students are experiencing homelessness which can mean that they lack items to meet their most basic needs.
My students deserve to receive the best education possible so that they are able to succeed in school and in life.
These boys and girls have such awesome attitudes, and they try their best every day! They have dreams of becoming teachers, doctors, police officers, and astronauts.
My Project
My kindergarten students love learning real life lessons. Many of my students will grow up to be business men and women. It is very important for my kindergarten students to learn financial literacy skills. Even my five and six year old students can learn basic financial literacy skills.
Technology based learning is an excellent way for my students to learn about becoming an entrepreneur.
I am requesting an iPad and an Osmo Little Genius Starter learning kit. The Osmo kit is played on an iPad. It turns the iPad into a hands on, interactive learning tool. Students will practice counting and number recognition. The math and financial skills learn through this activity will help my students begin to develop skills that will make them successful adults and productive members of society.
We will use the iPad to play other Osmo games that help students develop literacy, math and STEM related skills. I recently had a similar project funded. Having another iPad and Osmo kit will allow more students to play at once. Thank you for taking the time to read my project idea! I really appreciate it.
