1st Graders Using Education Technology

Hi, my name is Trish Munson. I used Dreambox to help support our curriculum and it also helps the students scaffold the curriculum. It helps them be able to kind of work wherever they are, and think mathematically wherever they are. If a student can excel, they’re allowed to excel. If the student needs more time in an area, they’re allowed to have more time and more support in that area. It’s really been great, it’s exciting. Sometimes I’ll start teaching a concept to the kids and one of them will raise their hand and say “Oh, I saw this on Dreambox! I know what this is all about.” And their hands are up and so they’re automatically, excitingly telling me this is how you do it. This is how I’m supposed to do it.
