Class Information:
Room Number: 4-121
Students per Class: 24
Class Description:
Technology integration that holds student interest and is blooming with success. I teach a 4th grade laptop classroom. Each student has a Mac laptop that they use on a daily basis. I believe that technology is a huge part of my students future and I'm preparing them for a world filled with technology. The laptops were purchased when my school went charter. The funding was only enough to purchase a laptop classroom for two rooms. We are not part of a district 1-1 initiative, which means that support and funding is slim. My students are from various backgrounds at a school that is 86% free and reduced lunch. Most students don't have access to a computer at home and thrive in an environment that keeps them connected to the world around them at school.
Position:

Needs:
Financial support! As a school I would love to continue the growth of our laptop program. As a classroom teacher, I would love to introduce students to the use of digital cameras and microphones with the hope of podcasting, storytelling, technology knowledge.
