My Students
My students should be given the opportunity to take advantage of all that technology has to offer. I have 160 students that are transitioning to a 21st-century classroom. I would love to give them every opportunity to succeed in the classroom and the real world.
I teach 6th grade English and History at a Math, Science, Technology Magnet located in California.
I have over 160 students in four classes that range from the highly gifted to ESL students. They are highly motivated and desire the latest technology. The way they learn best is whenever we incorporate any form of technology. The are independent learners, but love working on group projects. They learn best collaborating and researching to find the information themselves. Now with the Common Core National Standards, we have even a greater need for more technology in the classroom to better prepare them for not only the new assessments approaching, but in the new way of learning the standards.
My Project
I am requesting a Brother Laser printer, scanner, and copier, that will be added to our classroom technology lab. By having the printer in the classroom, the students will have access to print their work they complete on countless websites and essays they complete. Not all my students have printers at home, to allowing them the access to print reports, information, pictures, and additional resources, will only enhance their learning experience. The printer also allows the students to copy images from other resources to add to their projects and activities. The scanner will allow the students to add additional information to their activities and be able to share content with their classmates. We will also be able to print countless additional curriculum resources to enhance our common core units.
Bringing technology into the classroom will open the world at my students' fingertips.
It will motivate and encourage them to produce above and beyond the assignments. The most important goals I have for my students are that they become 21st century learners and career ready. Anytime the students use any form of technology to broaden their knowledge, is an amazing learning experience.
