Currently, I have two computers in my classroom. These 5 Chromebooks would help students be able to work at their own pace. Students will learn how to type and/or increase their typing skills. They will also learn how to research for writing, social studies, and science. Chromebooks have a special feature called text to speech. Some of my students have difficulty getting their thoughts down on paper. This feature will help them express their thoughts and ideas.
Khan Academy is another resource students will be able to use on the Chromebooks. This resource teaches students a variety of subjects, through guided practice, videos, and games.
Bookflix, TruFlix, and Story-line Online are reading resources used to increase fluency, reading stamina, and create access to text that is read to them. This helps students comprehend text at a higher level than they may read at. Students can also follow along as the words are high lighted as they are read to them. This helps increase their vocabulary.
