My Project

Chromebooks will transform learning in our first-grade classroom by providing engaging, hands-on experiences. Students will use them for phonics and reading programs, helping to strengthen early literacy skills. In math, interactive platforms like GoMath and IXL will offer personalized practice. Chromebooks will also support writing development through Google Docs, where students can type simple stories and reflections. For science and social studies, they will explore virtual field trips and research topics safely. Additionally, students will develop digital citizenship skills and practice early coding with beginner-friendly apps. Lastly, they will be able to play Kahoot games that will foster team building, classroom engagement, and friendly academic competition.
