"We live in a fast-paced, visual world. I teach in a first grade ESL class, in a low income district. Many of my students are at a disadvantage when they come to me, due to lack of resources at home.

I have a short amount of time during the day in which to maximize every available amount of teaching time. I need quality, engaging materials that are on hand, ready to go.

The use of a digital presentation system would be an invaluable tool in my ELS classroom. My students would be able to see and hear discussions in a way that is captivating and engaging. Research shows that material that is presented in a visually stimulating way is more easily grasped, retained, and absorbed by students. Imagine how much more effective a Writing "How To" lesson would be for my ESL students, if they could watch the demonstration on a screen, as it was occurring!

The ELMO TT-02U Digital Presenter was made specifically with the classroom in mind. It is economically priced, and is geared for the educational setting. It even has the capability to hook up to a microscope for students to easily see microscope slides. What a wonderful science tool!

I can visualize my students watching a lesson on geometric shapes for math, or taking a cross-country tour on a virtual map of the USA! There are SO many opportunities that I can envision from the use of the ELMO TT-02U Digital Presenter.

I want to empower my students. I won't settle for them to simply pass my grade--I want them to excel! The Digital Presenter will be tremendous asset towards reaching this goal.

By helping to fund this project for my classroom, you have the opportunity to directly influence the future of these children. On behalf of my students, thank you!

My project needs 1 ELMO Digital Presenter. The cost of this proposal is $960, which includes shipping for any materials requested and fulfillment ."
