This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
This year, I am teaching third grade with a special education teacher in an inclusion classroom. My students have challenges and need a lot of one-on-one help. The other teacher and I work with groups all day. We do a lot of one-on-one teaching and modeling and spend a lot of time moving around the classroom. We try to motivate, encourage, and remediate in order to keep our class moving to meet the state's standards. We are a great team working with great students.
My Project
The materials will make a difference in my students' learning by providing them with personal use of Fire as a pathway for learning. It will give them opportunities to explore the world and learn beyond the classroom walls. They will use the Fire tablets in class for reading and phonics activities. They will use the tablets along with the Promethean Board for group presentations. The tablets will provide the students with more technology exposure.
When my students use technology, they are eager to learn and more engaged.
They are more responsible. My students want to use technology to explore, create and share in the classroom and beyond. The Fire tablets will improve their school lives by enhancing their learning experiences in fun ways with personal access to technology.
