My Project

Reading can be fun and exciting to learn for little learners but what better way than to bring a 3D learning style to a classroom.

3D animals that pop on the screen will create learners of reading, writing and science, while teaching the young learners to use technology for learning not just entertainment.

This interactive learning tool will allow my students to take pictures, practice letters and sounds and create online journals to support reading by scanning a bar code. What better way to start a journey of learning than using tools that adults use everyday. Please help my young learners to use technology to grow their learning.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
