Preparing for Our Future With Technology

My students need tablets so they can submit their work electronically and prepare for the technology they will use in middle school.

My Students

I teach 3 classes of Reading/Language Arts in a south Louisiana rural school. I have about 27 students in each class. My students spend the year learning the foundation skills to enjoy reading for a life time.

My Reading class is a place where students can explore new worlds and have adventures through books.

Students learn to heighten their comprehension and enhance the reading experience.

The students are creative, engaged, and adventurous. They love to find new and exciting books in the library. My goal is to foster a life-long love of reading in my students.

My Project

I am trying to prepare my students for the demands of middle school by giving them more access to technology, Barnes and Noble's Nooks. The fact that these tablets are portable will aid in the access the students will have and help them to work with peers.

The students will be able to use these nooks to access Google Classroom, create Google slides and docs, use apps to help with their reading, listen to recorded lessons, and take AR tests.

This technology will also help give the students more instant feedback on projects since they will see their grade in Google Classroom.
