Learning to read and write would still be the number one priority. Since we are moving forward so rapidly with technology, I would also see smaller classrooms (no more that 10 students) so that I could help my students read well enough to follow instructions on their computers or be able to understand what the "talking back" computer is saying or requesting from them. My students would all come well rested, fed and ready to learn because the home support worker the division pays for each household, would take over for the parents who are falling short with these responsibilities. a cart of 15 laptops between 2 classes smartboards in all classrooms a set of 15 digital cameras for class projects a feeding scanner for copying documents or linking up the photocopier to make digital copies and vice versa a co-teacher to build and execute projects and lessons together with headphones for all students microphones I would like to see a smart board in the science room for health.
