My Students

My students love to learn. They love every subject I teach. They especially love using technology. I want them to be able to have access to all of the latest technology their is to offer.

My students are the best!

And I do not just say that because they're in my class. They come into the classroom everyday with a positive attitude. They are eager to learn, and they have such an enthusiasm over everything we do. My students also live in a day and age where technology is such a relevant part of our lives. They love hands on activities and they love using technology. My students find fun in so many different things.

My Project

Every morning we begin with calendar and morning message. This is the same routine everyday. Imagine being able to do this with an interactive white board. Students can easily manipulate the calendar and engage! And that is just the first forty minutes! Students will get to use a Promethean Board to help engage in learning in all aspects of the day. We will get to use it during reading and math, and everything in between. Interactive white boards are a fantastic way to ensure all students are engaged in learning. Students will be able to match different things together, or write with a magic pen. They can drag and drop to the correct location. And those are just a few things you can do. They are also so much fun! I want my students to have access to everything. They are young, but I believe that they should have every learning tool I can get for them. I want to make sure that they are able to learn in a variety of ways

Your donations will have a great impact on my classroom.

You will be helping to put the latest technology into young learners hand. They will be using a hands on tool to help learn all of their subjects. The board will help many students to come. The board will change their lives, as I believe it will help them become stronger learners.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
