Computer Mice for 5th Grade Techies

My students need computer mice to help them smoothly navigate through their online learning resources. As more curriculum output is online through E-readers and Google apps for education, computer mice are becoming essential class "pets."

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My students are hard working 5th graders who deserve a classroom environment that matches their spirit to learn. In this high academic environment, I want to provide an opportunity for my students feel comfortable and have the adequate tools for success.

We are a brand-new 5th grade classroom in a school that grows in population.

Help us get the materials we need to help our creative energies flow into the world. As educational technology innovates, so must our basic list for school supplies. Mice are becoming a classroom necessity.

My Project

Thank you for your consideration for donating individual computer mice and mouse pads to my 5th grade class. In a world where technology and education go hand-in-hand, it only makes sense that students also have a mouse in theirs to help them smoothly navigate through online resources. A computer mouse and pad will also increase the longevity of our chrome books as the built-in track pad ages over time and use. A mouse will help curtail this aging process. Students will also have more creative control over their device and the programs with a mouse. They will be appreciated!
