Teaching is something that runs deep in my family.
My mom and godmother both taught at the same school I am now.
My sister teaches at a nearby school as well. We all have a great love of teaching and our community. At this time, I am a Kindergarten teacher at a Pre K-5th grade school. My hometown is known to be a close area that works together for our students. Parental support is a definite priority in our area. Our local school has around 550 students. I have a fun loving class who embraces learning!
My Project
With powerful technology resources available for classrooms, teachers use devices to seamlessly integrate productive lessons. I believe that with a set of class Boogie Boards in my Kindergarten classroom, my students could utilize this tool. we'd love to have a set of 27 boogie boards.
As an educator, I see how students enter school on a new level in terms of technology.
They embrace it faster than ever before. A set of classroom Boogie Boards would be great for writing, drawing and other creative work. I could create activities meshed with reading, art, and math activities for this resource. We live in a world filled with technology unlike ever before. According to the site: "The revolutionary Reflex LCD featured in the Boogie Board Original 8.5 eWriter retains an image indefinitely without power until you press the erase button to clear the screen." I could place them in centers for writing practice, practicing ELA (alphabet) and math (number) practice too. The Boogie Board tablet's pressure-sensitive LCD writing surface creates lines of different thickness based on how hard you push, just like paper and pen! My students love art. As a teacher. This would help my creative students with academics, as well as art projects.
It is no secret that additional technology money is not always available for the extra technology accessories and tools.
I am asking your help to bring a classroom 27 Boogie Boards to my classroom. If you would help, we would love to have a set of 27 boogie boards for our Kindergarten class. Please consider helping us! It would be used for productive lessons to bring the students to a higher level of academic achievement. Can you please help drop a set of boogie boards in our basket?
