How happy do these children look? They are absolutely loving the new Lakeshore headphones we were able to purchase thanks to Florida Education Association-Retired through a grant we were awarded.
This year my mission was to really integrate technology into our daily routine. I researched, talked to important people, attended conferences, collaborated with teachers, and used TWITTER like no other year before and it has changed my teaching.
Our district invested in Reading a to z and anyone that has used it knows the power it can be for a young reader. You can listen to, read, record, and answer comprehension questions. What do you do when you don't have enough headphones and you can hear others in the background?
Well Florida Education Association-Retired offered a grant for needed classroom materials and I made sure to advocate for my friends. Who would have know they would have picked our grant out of all the entries. We were so excited to get the news and order those headphones.
My friends and I agree they make a world of difference in the classroom. We are able to listen to information on the internet, record ourselves in apps, and practice our prosody as we get to be better readers. I can't thank Florida Education Association-Retired (and Charles Moskowitz, District Director)for their efforts and making us a grant winner! #grateful
