25 STUDENTS AND 3 CLASS COMPUTERS! YIKES!!!
I want to change the way my students feel about the subject that I'm very passionate about. I tell my students to read books in my classroom library and they would react as if they were told to eat all of their vegetables! Yes , I will admit that I do not have the best classroom library but I do have interesting books.
I have books of all categories , but I'm starting to realize that my library is not the problem. The problem is that students are not wanting to read books anymore. These kids are interested in video games and technology. I want to meet my students on their level and show them that I'm willing to do whatever it takes to show them that Reading is a special superpower to have.
There are many problems that's stopping me from proving this FACT to them.
1.Not all of my students are reading on grade level , some of my students are reading on a Kindergarten level. I cannot afford to buy books across all reading levels.
2. I do not have much room to store the books in my small classroom.
It was that moment thought about it. I should have digital classroom library! Students will have access to all digital books and games to help improve their Reading and Fluency. The only problem is that there is not enough technology for my students. We have only 4 computers in the classroom and 25 students in each class. Please help bring this digital library to life!The students can use these tablets to read books , recipes , news articles , magazines , and even e-mails! This would work perfect in stations also.
