The Future of Tomorrow Starts Today With My Students' Learning!
My students need laptops to help with ELA, Math, Science, and Social Studies topics, tasks, and projects because they all have special education services and are combination learners with visual, auditory and kinesthetic that laptops do.
The future of American starts now with each of my thirteen students! They are the citizens of a Type One school located in Queens, NY. They come from an African-American and Latino heritage and part of low-income families. All of my students receive Special Education Services and must have all lessons tailored to their individual learning styles, which are as followed visual, auditory and kinesthetic. They look forward to learning about real-world topics and issues. Technology is the way of the future and so are my students. I know that they will learn because with technology the fun with me using the laptops in different ways to help building the areas that need improvement, for example, reading, writing, and becoming created with their projects.
My Project
The use of technology in my classroom for my students will help them achieve education success, especially because all thirteen of my students receive Special Education Services all day long. The Chrome laptops will allow for my students to experience real-world topics and issues with the use of the Internet, for example, using Flocabulary, Discovery Education, and core subject textbooks on-line. It will help with developing their reading and writing skills with hands-on practice via the different Internet Education Websites. In today's world of technology, it will help my students with their project base assessment and essays. In today's world, all students need to be college and career ready. We all know that times have changed and when we as educators add technology into our lessons students start to take ownership of their learning. Plus with technology my students can work with partners to present important details, facts, citing evidence, and use laptops in science to watch and learn about the different experiments that is happening in real-time. It will help develop their reading and writing skills in all their core subjects. The laptops will also help with the health lessons and life skills lessons, for example balancing a checking account, budgeting, and resume writing skills for the future.
