I am currently teaching kindergarteners who love technology and love to learn. Their personalities are carefree and excited about school and learning. Every day their faces light up from the moment they walk in the room and can't wait to get back when they leave for the day.
The students strive to find ways to explore using manipulatives in the classroom.
But the real amazing thing they do is look for ways to learn more about things they see. For example, they may pick up a book about a particular subject and what more information than what is in the book!
My Project
Ms. Fletcher's puppies class is looking to expand their technology in the classroom. We use a variety of apps and programs on the computer that we would like to be able to use on tablets as well. The Kindles provide an additional way for my students to learn to read. The headphones allow for listening opportunities and so that they are not distracted by another's tablet.
We now live in a world of so much technology and it is essential that children are exposed to all different types of literature both in a book and in tablet form!
This project will help my students who may not have technology at home an opportunity to be exposed to online reading before they have to start testing on computers.
