Help me give my students three Amazon tablets with cases for protection to given them access to the world and create a virtual library for all of them to enjoy.
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
I am a special education inclusion teacher in a Title I school in an economically disadvantaged neighborhood working with incredible students who love accessing technology but have limited resources or opportunity to access or learn from technology. I am an inclusion English teacher, managing all 8th grade special education students as well as co-teaching both 7th and 8th grade English teachers.
Everyday, we struggle with limited resources and limited technological access that hurts my students ability to learn, my ability to teach, and our ability to access creative and exciting opportunities.
Students enjoy working hard, are engaged and motivated, but often struggle with completion due to limited resources and limited exposure.
My Project
Right now, limited access to computers and printed materials limits students worlds to what they see and hear in their everyday life. Students struggle to imagine a world outside of their neighborhood. With students reading on every grade level between early K and mid 8th grade, providing books that are interesting and meet the needs of each student is difficult without access to a school library. Tablets help students by not only creating a digital library to choose nearly any book from, but it exposes students to technology and 21st century learning and growth.
Giving students the ability to choose books on their interest and level, as well as opening up the world through technology, will revolutionize student engagement with reading and academic achievement.
I cannot wait to see students excited to be the first to choose a book and to rush into learning.
