A Tour of Our Classroom 2013-2014 School Year

This school year our class was reward an ipad grant through Gear Up. Excited needless to say. One happy teacher and happy students. The grant was for 30 student ipads, 1 teacher ipad, charging cart for ipads, and a imac.

This is a small board I have outside of my classroom to greet guest. Welcome to our classroom!!!

 

Outside of our classroom we have a timeline. On this time line it will have photos and student work for each month. Using the timeline will show our work process and what we have done this school year. Please come check out our timeline.

 

This is behind the teacher's desk. This school year we are sharing our classroom with another special education class. This is a good thing we work together on class projects.

Our classroom is lucky to have a smart board. A smart board is hooked up to a computer and it becomes a touch screen white board.

I also received a Walmart grant for $500.00 for our classroom. I bought a vga adapter to hook up the ipad to the smart board. This allows me to teach apps before the students use them. This app is called Writing Wizard. This app teaches the correct way to write letters and number. The best part you can add your own word list and record the words. I made work list for the dolce sight words. When you click on the word it will have your voice recorded saying the word and then you trace it.
