My Project

This device will be used for students to have access to different websites and apps that will help build the reading and math skills. Being that my students are between the ages of 4 turning 5 and 6, most of them do not know how to use a computer with a mouse or track pad. This becomes a hassle to stop to have to teach when we really need to focus on the foundation of getting our students to use technology but also really focus on helping build their early literacy and math skills.

This device will help my students gain access to technology at their finger tips while also helping build their reading and math skills.

My goal is for all students to be fluent in technology before first grade so that when they transition to computers and ipads, they transition will be seamless and easy for them and the future teachers!
