My Students

Take a moment to think about your kindergarten experience. Did you just get a feeling of nostalgia, too? Kindergarten was an amazing and fun time that taught you the foundations of reading, writing, and math. My students are getting that same experience, but they are in need of materials that will take their researching skills to the next level!

The children I teach are energetic, wonderful, hardworking students.

They impress me everyday with their awesome attitudes, and desire to learn. We are a full day kindergarten class at a Title I school. Most of our students qualify for the free breakfast and lunch program. The student population is 33% Caucasian, 26% Hispanic, 12% Asian, 11% African American, 28% other.

My Project

Having 2 Chromebooks is our class will ignite our passion to learn more! As you know, technology is a way of life in today’s world. My kindergarteners are little sponges that absorb everything that is taught to them. I want to give my students the opportunity to do their own research on different topics we are learning. Having access to Chromebooks will give them the ability to dig deep into a topic and find multiple interpretations of what they are studying. Having Chromebooks will also help my students to become familiar with researching and navigating a computer, a skill they will need for the rest of their lives.
