Technology Makes Reading Fun!

My Project

These items will benefit scholars and help keep scholars healthy during the school year. As we know germs run ramptant in schools especially during the colder months. Lysol wipes will ensure all tables and materials are clean in the classroom. The iPad will be very beneficial to help display graphic organizers for the children. Will allow scholars to have opportunities to complete assignments such as i-Ready and Lexia tasks. This is very beneficial since there are limited laptops for scholars.

This will ensure all scholars have a chance to meet their goals while having access to technology which is very limited at my school.

The technology wil also be beneficial for story time with scholars. The manipulatives such as the Magnet tiles are very beneficial for scholars during indoor reecess or when scholars need to attend the calming corner for some down time. This is also great for scholars social and emotional times and allows scholars a opportunity to build and engage with other scholars to complete a beautiful piece of art.
