Crossing Our Fingers for a Set of Boogie Boards!

My Students

Philip Green stated, "Good, bad or indifferent, if you are not investing in new technology, you are going to be left behind." Boogie Boards LCD writing tools meshed with the curriculum, can bring expectations to new heights! My students have their little fingers crossed for boogie boards!

We have almost 550 students here.

I am a 2nd-grade teacher who has taught other grade levels in the past before settling in 2nd grade. Our teachers and staff engage our students in powerful ways and our students do enjoy the learning environment. The children truly embrace technology at our school.

My Project

As a teacher, I see how students enter school on a new level in terms of technology. They embrace it faster than ever before. A set of classroom Boogie Boards would be great for writing, drawing & other creative work. I could create activities meshed with reading, art, & math activities for this resource. We live in a world filled with technology unlike ever before. At times, though, it is difficult for schools to receive additional funding for extra resources. According to the site: "The revolutionary Reflex LCD featured in the Boogie Board Original 8.5 eWriter retains an image indefinitely without power until you press the erase button to clear the screen. Great for children to practice writing and playing games..." I could place them in centers for creative writing practice, math fact games and so much more. The Boogie Board tablet's pressure-sensitive LCD writing surface creates lines of different thickness based on how hard you push, just like paper & pen. We'd love to have some!

It is no secret that additional technology money is not always available for the extra technology accessories and tools.

I am asking your help to bring a classroom set of 30 Boogie Boards to my classroom. Believe me, when I say, my students have their little fingers crossed for a set of 30 boogie boards! Your consideration is appreciated.
