My students are kind, enthusiastic, and hard-working! We live in the beautiful Upper Peninsula of Michigan and love spending our time outdoors. Students are at varying ability levels, but they are happy and willing to help each other out.
They are very curious and eager to learn.
Our school consists of many friendly faces from students, staff, and parents. Although our school community is supportive, funds are limited. Your help with this project will make a tremendous difference to our class. Thank you!
My Project
Right now we have three chromebooks in our classroom. We received them through Donors Choose and I am so grateful for the generous donations that made this possible. It has been wonderful having chromebooks in the classroom, but in order to use them as a center during reading or math rotations, the students would need two more to provide for the 4-5 students in a group.
By having two more chromebooks in the classroom, students would be able to use a variety of websites that help them with their specific learning abilities.
Students would use websites such as XtraMath, Freckle Education, Prodigy, Raz-Kids, Kahoot, and MobyMax. Most of these websites have a placement test to see what students already know before they begin using the site more. The placement test measures where the students are at and then they are able to move forward from there. The websites not only helps to teach students the content they are to learn, but it is also a fun and engaging way for them to learn! They are very motivated when they are able to use technology and I know these chromebooks would help keep them motivated and excited about learning.
