A Class Chromebook Can Make A Colossal Difference

My students need a class Chromebook to provide fast, easy access to online educational games supporting literacy and math skills.

My Students

My sweet second graders need fast and easy access in our classroom to the many amazing and FREE educational resources available on the Internet!

My students acquiring English, especially, need more access to resources available on the computer, and I need this to be easily available to them IN CLASS.

My classroom is blessed with huge, beautiful diversity! It is exciting and challenging to find every resource available to meet the needs of such a vast array of skills and needs.

My Project

We, my sweet second graders and I, work hard each and every day to do all we can to become stronger readers, mathematicians, scientists, and citizens! Closing the achievement gap is an ominous task, and it takes a huge variety of resources to try and meet the needs of students struggling to catch up. It's imperative that my class has fast and easy access to the plethora of resources available on the Internet today.

Please help me meet the many needs of my darling students.

A Chromebook in our classroom will give us the connection to resources that will truly make a colossal difference! A Chromebook would be a huge asset to help all my students soar. In particular, my students who speak little or no English and have little access to technology would light up at the ability to access these educational games and stories in class.
