We may not be able to prepare the future for our children, but we can at least prepare our children for the future. ~Franklin D. Roosevelt
My students have enjoyed doing research in all subject areas this year and an additional 2 Chrome books would help reach more students.
I have a classroom of 23 students trying to learn as much as they can.
They are hungry for information. As they are reading, they are constantly wanting to know more about a topic. The children in the classroom today are the ones who will be running our country in the future. Technology continues to change the world. They also have very creative minds. Technology will help them put this creativity to work and feed it to continue growing.
My Project
By adding more technology to my classroom, I am able to reach more students. The 2 Chromebooks will be used to help enrich and challenge students by having them take their assignments a step farther. I can also help students who are struggling. There are so many programs out there to help students who are struggling with many concepts taught in class. My students are very hardworking and eager to learn all that they can. These Chromebooks will also help students solve real-life problems. A few projects have already been started in class working through different scenarios they will encounter as they grow up and begin finding jobs. They will also be able to type some of their writing pieces to publish them. After they are typed them, they will be able to send them home. The Chromebooks will also improve their typing skills. We have recently had a student add us who does not speak English. Many programs help them hear and speak to help them understand and learn English at a faster rate.
By adding two more Chromebooks to my classroom, more students will be able to use technology.
They will have more of an opportunity to continue their research, complete projects to solve real life problems, and enrich their learning.
