Technology CAN BE Developmentally Appropriate!

My students need kids stylus for the iPads. These resources will be used every day in our iPad lab. A stylus is important because it helps with fine motor development and pencil grip.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

Our school is a 4k - Fourth Grade Elementary School. We have a very wonderful school with a changing population and varying backgrounds. We are in a high poverty area with +70% of our students receiving free and reduced lunch. We also have a +70% population of English Language Learners.

My students come to school excited to learn.

They love to sing songs, read books, and listen to stories. Our students will be using iPads for our Imagine Learning program, but in order to be developmentally appropriate we would like our students to use a stylus!!

My Project

The use of technology is almost a daily activity in my students' lives. Using Imagine Learning (an age-appropriate vocabulary and language building program) has been a great resource in my district. We have a 70%+ English Language Learning community so having our students use the program has been vital to student success.

As valuable as technology is, as 4k teachers we recognize that it is important for our students to continue to develop their fine motor skills.

Our students complete the Imagine Learning program on iPads. Today's children are so acclimated to using technology, but with iPads children would often use their finger for touching the screen. By having kids use a gummy stylus, students will be able to appropriately use the iPad program while still developing their fine motor skills and hand strength.

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student fine motor development, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement. Plus in this technology literate world, any interaction with updated technology will increase their literacy as well as their desire to learn .
