Capture Learning with a Digital Camera

My students need one digital camera, one camera case and one memory card.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Geraci's classroom raised $610

This project is fully funded

I am a third grade teacher in an Urban Charter School where most of my children are considered "Title 1" students.

I would love to have a digital camera to utilize in my classroom. Most of my students could benefit from seeing the growth that they have made and photos of things that they have learned about during the school year.

Please consider helping me bring learning home to my students by funding my project for a digital camera and supplies. My limited supply money does not come close to being able to fund the materials I need for this project.

My project needs one digital camera, one camera case and one memory card. You will make a great difference in the lives of my students.
