My Students

My young students are always eager for new learning experiences. They soak up any and all knowledge and experiences that I provide them with. My students come from many different backgrounds and learning levels. I try each day to meet the needs of all of my students.

One thing that is the same for all of my students is that they are five to six years old and I want to be able to provide them with learning experiences that are appropriate for their age level.

My Project

Technology is what get our kids excited these days so why not bring that excitement into the classroom? In my classroom, kindergartners participate in centers twice a day. They have forty-five minutes of reading and forty-five minutes of math. Adding an iPad center to allow the students to play educational games, would truly enhance their excitement.

In the area I teach, technology is not readily available for all of my students so I would love to be able to provide them with two iPads.

Playing educational games, educational movies, as well as tutoring apps, my student will be able to have a brand new learning experience.
