Project Title: I Enrich for a Switch
As a kindergarten teacher I wonder how can I better serve my students, and not label my struggling students as “low” because they are not developmentally ready for the skill that I am teaching. Since I began teaching kindergarten I continually think about how I can help my intervention students. We do individual conferencing, intervention programs, and flash cards just to name a few. I’m always trying to come up with creative ways to help them, but I see the disappointment in their faces when they don’t get to do other activities more advanced students are completing. So, my problem is how can I provide fun enrichment activities for all of my students, and get my intervention students on level.In order to provide enrichment activities for all of my students, I will implement the use of iPads and an Osmo in small group and individual activities. This will improve and strengthen students reading, writing, and cognitive reasoning skills in a fun and creative way. Students will use the technology along with other educational “apps” to improve their ability to perform educational objectives.
