My Students

I teach fourth grade students in Brooklyn. My class is comprised of students of varying backgrounds. Some are able to cope with the fourth grade level of work, however the majority are struggling to keep up with the work. Apart from the challenge they face at school academically they also come from low income households.

Personally, I think these students can achieve more at school if they are well equipped with resources that are not available at school nor at home.

My Project

With the iPads, my students will be able to search for information based on their projects right in the classroom! As a result linking them to valuable information that they otherwise would not have had. In addition students will also have the opportunity to read and listen to their favorite authors thus gaining a wealth of knowledge.

The sky's the limit with this new technology.

Having iPads will give my students the opportunity to access information like other kids whose parents are able to expose them to this tool.

An essential role of a teacher is to help educate students for the future so that they are well equipped for the job market. Exposing my students with this technology will be an asset when they start college.
