My Students
It is extremely sad to say we are a Technology Magnet with little technology! I am trying to bring learning alive in our classroom through the use of the Internet, and countless applications. With tablets, my students will be able to access the world at their fingertips.
I teach 6th grade English and History at a Math, Science, Technology Magnet located in CA.
I have over 160 students in four classes that range from the highly gifted to ESL students. They are highly motivated and desire the latest technology. The way they learn best is whenever we incorporate any form of technology. They are independent learners, but love working on group projects. They learn best collaborating and researching to find the information themselves. Now with the Common Core National Standards, we have even a greater need for more technology in the classroom to better prepare them for not only the new assessments approaching, but in the new way of learning the standards.
My Project
I am requesting two Samsung Galaxy tablets which we will be adding to our classroom technology lab. By having the tablets in the classroom, the students will have access to unlimited information and resources beyond what any textbooks could provide them. In addition to the Internet, my students will be using a program called Accelerated Reader which is an Internet based reading program promoting reading comprehension along with encouraging the students to want to read for enjoyment. They will also utilize a program called Vantage. This is a writing program that allows students to submit essays online and instantly get scores and feedback to encourage revising and editing. The students will have access to unlimited apps that will reinforce the state standards and allow independent-based research of their interest. Bringing technology into the classroom will open the world at my students' fingertips. It will motivate and encourage them to produce above and beyond the assignment.
Bringing technology into the classroom will open the world at my students' fingertips.
It will motivate and encourage them to produce above and beyond the assignment. Assessing the Common Core materials, using the tablet, will enhance their learning experience, and better prepare them for real world.
More than half of students from low‑income households
