Tech World

My Students

My classroom consists of a diverse population, from all over the world. Many of them are English Language Learners, come from low income families and are growing up in inner city neighborhoods. At school they are provided with free breakfast and lunch and many of them are given backpacks of food every Friday to ensure they are fed over the weekend.

Despite the obstacles they face daily outside of school, they continue to show up eager to learn.

I consider my students to be the most caring, generous, understanding and helpful children that I know. They deserve the best education regardless of where they come from. When they enter my classroom, they feel safe and know they have the opportunity to find their strengths through engaging, hands on learning.

My goal is to provide the necessary resources for an exciting and rich learning experience, especially for those who lack that opportunity in their home environment. If my students are fortunate enough to obtain these types of resources, this will help them develop the skills needed to be and feel successful. This will give them exposure to new types of learning.

My Project

As we know, everything is moving toward the tech world. If my students have an iPad, this will give them the opportunity to experience technology because they lack these resources at home.

Having the iPad in the classroom will allow them to work independently in a quiet work area, experiencing all this Ipad has to offer.

They will be able to enjoy math and reading games that are engaging and fun! This will also give me the opportunity to assess my students formally and informally. Having this Ipad would be an extremely exciting asset to have that we can add to our classroom!
