My Students

Our school is filled with eager boys and girls who arrive at school every day ready to embrace the wonderful learning experiences that await them. We have students from diverse backgrounds, both socioeconomically and culturally.

Our students all share the desire to use technology tools in innovative ways to complement their learning.

Using technology tools also promotes authentic learning experiences. Our "new to school" learners love to try new things, get their fingers and minds active, and share their successes. What better way than with iPads!

My Project

Help us to create engaging, fun, and authentic learning opportunities for our K-1 Littles with the integration of technology! iPads for our K-1 kiddos not only gives an amazing tool for integrating the core curriculum in a fun and innovate way it also gives our students the opportunity to learn so many other great skills: collaboration, teamwork, negotiating, creating, evaluating, and critical thinking. Using technology as a tool increases confidence, leadership skills, interpersonal skills, and problem solving too!

We want to explore the world of virtual reality, e-books, stop motion animation, vocabulary development, story writing & publishing...the possibilities are endless!

iPads will allow students to work more frequently, more often, in smaller groups, and with more hands-on time to read, create, innovate!
