Mr. Johnson from Mount Airy NC is requesting technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Plainsmen Inventing Tomorrow

My students need a cart with 30 Chromebooks to research, create, be engaged, to learn, to be connected to the world around them, and to help them grow as students.

My Students

I want a classroom full of students that genuinely want to be there. I want students that want to be the best they can be and know that nothing is going to hold them back. My students deserve the best and I want them to know I'm there for them when help is needed.

My students are forever learners.

They want to learn, they want to improve. I have 24 students that will try their best and are willing to work hard to meet their goals. My students love helping one another and support each other. They love to sing and rap along with me.

My Project

These Chromebooks will allow my students to research the three branches of government in socials studies. They will be able to create presentations on rocks for science. My students will grow tremendously by assessing their thinking in math and reading using educational designed websites. These Chromebooks will be a tool that students will use weekly.

The Chromebooks would be shared around the school and allow many students to be creative, innovative, and above all engaged learners.

They would allow us to stop wasting time waiting for outdated technology to load up and crash. We live in a world of technology and computer skills are necessary to my students and their peers' continued educations and future careers.
