My Students

It has been said that bigger is better. If that is the case, why not view small print and curriculum up on the interactive board? My students would love to be able to view everything up on the Mimio board with the Mimio view!

The wonderful students of a small, rural school in Illinois are full of energy and spunk.

Most of the students are of lower income but that does not stop their passion for learning. Everyday they bounce into the classroom with smiles on their face and are ready for the day. Coming to a new building with the Jr. high kids makes them nervous but are soon comfortable with the "big kids".

My Project

When my students are able to view projects and worksheets on the board with ease, their education will be changed immensely. Like opening that new bike on Christmas Day, my students will be eagerly awaiting the Mimio View! When projects are completed or worksheets are too small, all we would have to do is use the Mimio View to project it onto the Mimio Board.

Any funding that allows my students to view their education materials with ease will allow them to prosper further in their educational experience.

Since these students are at a lower income than others, any help toward purchasing this new tool will help tremendously! THANKS!
