Many of my students come from low income families and are unable to utilize technology in their homes. My students also come from many different countries and their families are limited in the English language. However my school along with our after school program provide many online opportunities for students to increase their English, math and literacy skills. Some of these programs include Raz-kids, IXL, Mindplay, and Brainpop. These sites are interactive, engaging and self paced allowing each student to learn and explore at their own pace. This project will also help my students develop a deeper love of learning and use technology to research, explore and gain more information about the topics they are learning about. They can watch videos about Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty to get a better understanding of landmarks in NYC or research information about sharks to complete a Nonfiction writing piece.
