Hi, I am a first grade teacher at a wonderful school located in Southern Louisiana . I teach 22 children in Ponchatoula. I have a low socioeconomic school and I have several children from my class who have moved here from New Orleans due to hurricane Katrina.
I would love to have some Leapsters for my class for my early finishers. All children are on different levels some finish activities fast while others struggle to complete. If I had a set of Leapster's for my children who finish an assignment early they could have some fun learning while not disturbing the rest of the class . Every a teacher wants to see every child in their class reach their full potential. This fun little computer game keeps the child entertained as well as teaching them.
The Leapster will benefit my lowest children as well. The Leapsters can help these children by reading stories to them. These mini computers are colorful and keep a child's attention.
Having these Leapster's in my class will excel all of my children academically all the way from my lowest students to my highest. So please help me excel my class from my early finishers all the way to my lowest achievers. Help all of my students learn in a fun interactive way.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
