My students need TECHNOLOGY in the classroom by the way of these 5 LeapFrog tablets, 29 headphones and the wide variety of educational games to go with them!!! You're NEVER too young for TECHNOLOGY!!!
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
Have you ever been the only kid in the classroom without a computer or that doesn't have access to new technology? Well, I have and I don't want my students to slip behind technology wise due to budget constraints.
My Pre-K students reside in the GREAT state of Texas and they're GREAT (Just like the state, of course.)!!!
Being a Pre-K teacher I think that technology is pertinent to their advancement into Kindergarten and beyond. I'm a firm believer of If you teach it to them they will learn it, no matter what age.
My Project
The LeapPad 2's will be a way to get technology at the fingertips of my Pre-K students. The Pads installed learning programs and games will get the students motivated to learn by offering engaging lessons in reading, math, science, social skills, and they even instruct them on how to write letters and numbers correctly. The many different types of educational games will enable the children to work independently and quietly using their headphones in a station or at their seat on a skill that they need more help in, extra practice, or introduce them to new skills. Being four and not knowing the value of a dollar and how to really take care of things the screen protectors and purple and green bumper guards will allow my students to use these Pads for years to come. The purple and green bumper colors also double as a quick skill separator of games or groups. The single headphones will allow my students to use the schools computer lab and be able to concentrate on their own activity.
I'm also a firm believer of the more you're exposed to the more you learn and what better way to engage the kids than with technology and games?
The goal of the Technology is for ALL of US with the LeapPads project is to provide different opportunities, forms of engagement and instruction that can get our kiddos brains moving seemingly "on their own" with a teacher named technology :)
