Chromebooks for My Eager Learners

My Students

My students walk into class every day with a smile on their face and ready for the day, even though some may not have had breakfast or the best night's sleep. Many of my students come from families with a variety of different economic backgrounds, with over 55% of our students from the whole school receiving free lunch. We are at very small elementary school on the island of Oahu, but we have very high expectations for our students.

My little ones might have some struggles at home, but they are so wonderful, loving, hard-working and always ready to learn.

My third graders in my class are eager to learn and to have the chance to have technology in their classroom. I know with the right tools they will be successful in anything they do.

My Project

My students need 5 Chromebooks to take them to the next level of learning. My third graders are in the generation of technology and having it right at their fingertips will help them succeed in the future. They are eager to learn but need the correct tools to get them to the next level. My students need to learn how to research topics and write reports on computers. With technology today going as fast as it is, they are already behind.

Your donations will help underprivileged children have a chance to use technology they never have before.

We do a very large research project that takes the whole second semester. We are integrating language arts, research, and science. Each class has itʻs own biome to research, then the students have their own habitat, animal, and plant to research in the given biome. In my class we are the Tropical Rain Forest. As of right now we use library books, the resources I find for them, and the limited time we can go to the school computer lab. If my students could have their own Chromebooks in their class to do research on, I know our research project could go to a whole new level. And to think of all of the future projects we could do with them. Each donation, regardless of the dollar amount, is an acknowledgment that you believe in these kids and their future.
