Kindergartners and Laptops
This year, we have two teachers working collaboratively with their Kindergarten classes. This enables them to provide more flexibility in grouping and differentiation. They wanted to keep the group together for their tech integration activities, but the labs could not accommodate such a large group.
What a perfect use for our mobile labs! We have 2 “computer dads” who come in and roll the carts in, get the laptops set up and logged in (later in the year the students will be logging in themselves and opening the application for the session).
The teachers love having the laptops in the rooms!They can introduce the activity on their projector and large screen. They can divide the group into two rooms, enabling the teachers and helpers to circulate and get to the students as they need help, because there is more space.
We are excited to see how our technology skills grow in kindergarten using the mobile laptops. Check back for more reports on what these kids are doing.
