(MENAFNEditorial) iCrowdNewswire - Jul 26, 2017 Touchscreen Computers for PreschoolersMy students need Tiggly Shapes, a sound bar, 2 touchscreen computers, Let's Find Out, and Science Spin Scholastic Magazine. My Students
I teach in a Title I School in North Carolina, and many of my students are at-risk for academic failure. This is many of my students' first time in a school setting. The early learners in my class are more interested in the process of discovering and manipulating materials, much more than the final products of their experiments.
My students love to move and be active. However, because of recent budget cuts, we are unable to purchase additional resources such as the ones requested.
My Project
We would love to have touchscreen computers to help us be able to use technology anywhere in our room. We will be able to use the computers for different content areas in all of the classroom centers. Having these computers will allow us to become involved and engaged in different educational apps, writing activities, and virtual field trips. Which is necessary being that we are not able to attend field trips because of funding. The most important benefit from these technologies is the hands-on experiences they offer. The touch screen feature would allow my young students to manipulate and write inside the different apps and bring more meaning to their learning.
We also need the Let's Find Out and Science Spin magazine which is a developmentally appropriate teaching supplement designed to introduce and reinforce core early-learning concepts.
We also will receive online learning tools like videos which really help reinforce what we just read.
I also need the Tiggy shapes, a sound bar, and the IPad holder to facilitate learning about technology. My students are being exposed to media through technology at very young age, so it seems especially important to engage them in appropriate activities with the right materials.
