My class of 24 2nd graders simply love learning. While most are below grade level, they all are eager to learn new and exciting things. I want to show them how to be innovative learners using the latest technology of an I-pad. Although we are in a low income inner city area, most of my students are very enthusiastic about learning and want to learn! I want them to know that by being able to know how to navigate to find information is an awesome tool in itself. Strengthening their minds with the know-how in technology will empower them with the knowledge they need to be productive students throughout their lives. I like to catch them while they are willing to learn and interested in what's going on around them.
