Goal

My goal is to have my students performing at or above grade level by the end of the year. I currently have 22% performing below grade level and the access ot the extra technology will help me reach this group, while also enriching my other students.  

 

What will be done with my students

My students will use this technology to access learning apps during small group time. They will also use these apps to help them complete projects in all subjects. Students will also be able to use their tablets during whole group instruction to participate in fun and engaging activities.  

 

Benefits to my students

I currently only have 8 Ipads. This hinders my students when trying to complete assignments during small group time. Students will be able to use them to also take quizzes and assessments for their reading and math ability (Big Ideas Math and MyPath).
Our district uses MyPath, which is a system that reteaches and enriches standards-based learning. This program tests them in the beginning to see what level they are on, and then will reteach them concepts they may have missed during the pre-assessment. This program unlike others, will not let them progress to the next level until they have mastered the current one.
They will also use their iPads during whole group lessons to play quiz games to keep learning fun and engaging. They will use our new Math curriculum’s website and games to participate in this to review skills we have learned in class.
Students will also be able to strengthen their reading and reading comprehension by using a program called Reading A-Z. I have several students who are struggling with reading, and by combining skills learned in class and the use of this app their comprehension will only strengthen.
I am always trying to find fun and engaging activities to use in my classroom to keep my students interested while actively learning. The extra access to technology will help me keep learning fun and engaging while also tying in technology at the same time.
