Computer Technology Skills for Pre-K

My students need a MacBook Pro so they can acquire early technology skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ortega's classroom raised $1,988

This project is fully funded

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 Pre-K students are eager to learn, especially when it comes to technology. Having a MacBook Pro would help my students learn how to use a Mac while at the same time have fun learning!

My Pre-K class is comprised of 36 students.

It is split into a morning class and an afternoon class. Our school is a Title I school, and most of my students live in a low income area and the majority of them in non-English speaking households. They are all very eager to learn and at this age love school!

My Project

Having a MacBook Pro in the classroom would put my Pre-K students at an advantage. They would be able to learn and practice how to operate the keyboard and mouse and at the same time play with educational software that would re-enforce reading and number skills. Having a Mac Book Pro would prepare my Pre-K students for future computer use, increase self-confidence, and boost their problem solving skills.

I would love for my Pre-K students to have a MacBook Pro to learn computer skills!

Having this learning tool in the classroom would be a great asset. Technology is all around them in the real world. Having this piece of technology would really be beneficial to my students!
