My Students

Be the one to give my students a chance to develop their literacy and have fun doing it. My students need that motivation and fun to help them in their learning. They need the opportunity to experience learning through technology because most of them don't have the opportunity to have them.

My students are low income students.

They attend a Title I school in Florida. They are not exposed to much technology because they aren't able to afford it. I want to give my students the opportunity to use technology to help them learn which will get them excited about learning.

My Project

These technology resources will help my students in a big way. It will motivate them to want to learn. It will help them develop their Phonemic Awareness. It will also help them to learn and enjoy learning. These Leapsters will help my students develop more in their Literacy skills which will help them learn to read and enjoy it.

You can be the one to make a difference in these students lives.

You can provide them with the technology needed to help them become successful in reading and literacy. They are our future and their success can start with you!!!! Thank you in Advance!!!
