My classroom is a safe environment where my students are empowered to learn and to share without judgment. My classroom facilitates the process of learning, promotes the freedom of expression and provides a supportive atmosphere. My sixth grade students are eager to learn, enthusiastic, motivated, good problem solvers, and very supportive of one another. Many of my students are self starters and others are learning to become more independent and take control of their learning objectives. All my students love the transition to middle school.
My Project
My students need six chromebooks with management software for classroom learning. Students will be able to use the technology in this project for Internet research, essay writing, presentations and collaborative work. My students will be working to strengthen their writing skills in the next few months and the Chromebook's allow students to collaborate and revise easily in the Google Apps for Education programs. We will use these tools to help students understand the most effective writing strategies and processes. The printer ink allows students to print from our classroom printer any time they want to show off their final project. The pencils just seem to always be a need for middle school students. Having access to technology resources right in the classroom provides my students with to a more complete learning environment, with true resources that support current curriculum standards. Whether students are working independently or in a group, these tools amplify the learning process.
