My Students

Learning is not always a priority of my students. All of my students come from very different home lives and school is an escape from the craziness of life sometimes. It is my goal to make school a place they like and want to come.

Our school has a very high population of lower income families.

We actually serve breakfast and lunch to every student in the district at no charge to the families. Additionally we have an outside organization that provides food to take home over the weekend to many of our students. Home life can be hard for many of our students so we try to help out.

My Project

It is amazing how much our students need to be able to use and understand technology for success. We will use the iPads to learn and investigate coding through different age appropriate robotic devices such as the Sphero. Many of these students will have future careers in some type of technology field so why not start them out young learning what they will need for the future.

Additionally, there are so many educational apps that can be downloaded for enrichment and reinforcement of the basic reading, writing, and math skills for the 1st grade student on the iPad.

My students will be able to use the iPads to challenge themselves at whatever academic level they might currently be performing. iPads allow for independent practice a long with instructional activities.
