My students are 5th graders in a rural community in Northwest Colorado. We are a Title I school, so many of my students are challenged by a low socio-economic status. We also have a high number of English Language Learners.
I strive to have a classroom where students are excited to learn and are willing to take risks. My students often don't have the opportunities that they might if they lived in a bigger city; some of them have never left our small town, and many of them have never been outside of Colorado.
I have to give them opportunities to expand their knowledge and experiences. Being able to engage in new learning opportunities and expand my students' knowledge of content and delve deeper into learning is important. My students are excited to be part of the first group of students who will each get an iPad of their own. They are excited to be a part of this opportunity. They are highly engaged my technology and I am excited to expand their learning through technology.
My students will soon receive iPads as part of a new district initiative. In a time of budget cuts, our school board has agreed to fund iPads for three different grade levels in our district, rather than purchasing curriculum materials. The hope is that the iPads will give teachers the resources we need to teach students in this ever changing world. I am excited and have some great ideas about how to use the iPads to help my students learn at higher levels and really delve deeply into the curriculum. However, my classroom is not set up to be a 1:1 classroom. I hope to get my students to a new level of learning and have them use their iPads as more than just a substitute for what they could do with paper and pencil.
