My Students

I have 25 amazing first graders who are energetic, enthusiastic, motivated, and special. My students like to move, twist, stand, sit, and, most importantly, learn. My students are in an urban community, and many students receive free or reduced-price lunch. Our classroom furniture is outdated, and I am looking to transform my everyday classroom into a kinesthetic learning environment to best meet the needs of all of my students. The students in my classroom range from regular education to ESL to special education. My high expectations and drive bring me to this project for my students.

My Project

My students need a Lenovo Touchscreen Chromebook for our station time. We have a large class this year and stations of six students. We have 5 computers and would like one more so that all students can use the computer at the technology station at the same time. This will help students flow smoothly through stations without waiting for classmates to finish. Students will be using the computer for both reading and math intervention support, enrichment and learning games in the classroom. They will be using and learning to use clever badges to sign into the computer and use programs to help with their academics while the teacher is taking small reading and math groups!
