What is Khan Academy? This app based only program allows us to assign students individualized skills to help target their needs. In the classroom, we provide tablets for students to log into their Khan Academy account and work on engaging, hands-on lessons!
During class-wide writing and research, 4th grade students are able to use their own devices to access online resources and tools to enhance their learning. It allows them to explore topics that are interesting to them and work at their own pace and level. Students are also able to collaborate with their peers, and creatively express their learning and new ideas to the class.
Here are some testimonies from our students:
"I like it because I get to learn new things like geography and I enjoy learning that." - Natalie
"I like it because I get to learn new things that I haven't learned before. It is a different way to learn than we usually use." - Eden
"I feel like for some people it might be difficult, but it is like learning a new subject. It might be overwhelming at first, but once you get the hang of it, it is a great way to learn."- Logan
