My Project

As everyone knows funding has been cut for schools. Our school has some classroom needs. We need document camera for some of our teachers. Many students are visual learners so having this document camera on helps them with learning. This document camera will be used for class to work along with the instructor. It will be helpful when the students are learning how to take notes in class. Having this is a tool that will allow for a great learning experience. So please donate so we can give all our children a great learning experience.
