Elmo, Where Are You?

My students need 1 Elmo document camera.

This project expired on November 26, 2008.

Wouldn't it be great if every student in the class could be the first one to see 3D maniuplatives? This could happen if our classroom had an Elmo! I teach 3rd grade at a low income title school. We are very rural and have limited access to new technology due to budget constraints.

An Elmo document camera would bring to life so many things that our children don't get to see. Everyone always wants to see and it is very difficult to show a large number of students something at the same time and everyone see it well.

An Elmo is just the machine to make this happen in our classroom. So many children are visual learners and having an Elmo would enhance our learning tremendously!

Your generous donation will ensure that every child in third grade would be able to get a firsthand look at teaching tools, manipulatives, reading passages,and other items in 3D!
