My Project

We are a K-8 school in the heart of North Philadelphia.

Our students are increasing their knowledge and skill level in STEM.

Many of the activities we do require smart board maneuverability and anchor charts to reference. Presentation clickers and digital tools can significantly enhance elementary school classrooms by promoting interactive learning and engagement. Clickers allow students to participate actively in lessons through real-time feedback and polls, making learning more dynamic.

Digital tools provide access to a variety of resources, fostering collaboration and creativity. Together, they encourage student participation, accommodate diverse learning styles, and help teachers assess understanding more effectively, ultimately creating a more engaging and effective learning environment for our elementary school children.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
