I will create more differentiated and personalized learning for my students with more devices in our classroom.  I will have enough technology for students to have access to computers at all times while I am working with small group in my resource room or when I am co-teaching.  I plan on having more personalized learning for my students with special learning needs.  These devices will give my class the access we need to use the many different tools available through the internet and the Google Play Store.  

I plan on using gamification, game based learning, project based learning, and personalized learning more often with these devices.  I also will have students complete research and read or listen to books with these devices.  In addition, I am planning on implementing blogging for my students.  Students would be able to record videos and share them on their blogs through this device.  On top of my students creating videos, I am creating videos for my students to watch and/or follow along with.  Having mobile devices in my classroom for my students would give them greater access to these videos I have created. 

What I will be purchasing with this money is:

• 4 Lenovo Tab 2 A7-30 and protective cases

• 4 pairs of Sony Headphones

In this world of technology, my students would really benefit and enjoy these being in our classroom.  Students will have more individualized learning that will help them reach their personal, academic, and IEP goals.  They would be able to make personal and academic growth by exploring the world through technology, and connect with others outside our walls.  The technology skills will benefit them today and for the rest of their lives.
