Being able to take meaningful notes and build appropriate review habits are essential life skills that students need to learn. Many students struggle with note taking and studying - students will write down everything they see and hear instead of finding a connection that will make the words/pictures/lesson more meaningful. As a result, students struggle when studying and often cannot recall the information. I am requesting an ELMO projector* to model note taking practices and teach the students new study habits. These skills extend well beyond the classroom as students will need to use them when they further their education and enter the work force. With the ELMO projector, students will be able to explore new ways of learning by making meaningful connections and taking meaningful notes which will positively impact their study habits. With your support, students will be able to see the importance and benefit of meaningful notes and use them to become lifelong learners. Thank you in advance! *The ELMO projector allows me to take notes with the students and projects them on the Smart Board in our classroom. It will also allow me to zoom in on demonstrations and visually explain processes in real-time.
