Ms. Schmidt Ballentine Elementary School
Fuquay Varina, NC Grades PreK-2

I have been blessed with an LCD projector and ELMO projector through DonorsChoose for my fabulous 21 kindergartners! This equipment has made teaching easier and more effective for me, but I now have the only ELMO projector for the school and one of the only LCD projectors. I would like to be able to share this equipment with the other teachers at my school. I could easily imagine the teachers being able to place their computer on a cart, connect it to the projector(s) and go on educational websites, read stories, show microscope slides, etc. in which their classrooms could view at one time since all the equipment are in one cart. This cart would save valuable instruction time as everything would already be ready; the cart would only need to be wheeled to the classroom borrowing the equipment! My class shouldn't be the only lucky class in the school to be able to use this technological equipment. By funding this grant, you would be helping 80 other teachers and 700+ students!! Thank you for helping make teaching easier for all of the teachers at my school, and for giving every child the best learning experience possible.
