FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Corkery's classroom raised $528

This project is fully funded

My Students

Gone are the days when the teacher and the blackboard are the only tool for learning. Technology in the classroom has become an enhancement that has proven successful for students with all needs and abilities.

We are a creative, diligent and studious bunch of first grade students in Pennsylvania.

We are a Title 1 pubic school. We have a very diverse cultural student population with multiple languages being spoken amongst every classroom from Kindergarten to fifth grade.

My Project

With our school district being very limited with technology in the classrooms, this iPad with help the diverse cultures and populations amongst my classroom. I have five different languages being spoken and multiple students with special needs. By having this iPad in our classroom, it will support many students with disabilities and help to advance those students to compete with surrounding schools and districts who have 21st century technology.

This project is very important to my classroom because it will allow all of my students to be successful.

It will support my advanced students, my special needs, and english language learners to be successful in all areas.
