Essential Resources

Help me give my students new updated technology tools, and equipment to flourish a classroom with academic resources for computer science lessons.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Scott's classroom raised $993

My Project

As the students step into my classroom, they feel a sense of positive energy through bright and happy colors, along with encouraging posters that inform them of how special they are. I have also provided posters to challenge students of the importance of positive moral character. Currently the desks are set up to allow students easy access to the required technology, which is Dell Chromebooks. Although the students have access to the Chromebooks, they will benefit from updated technology. There is also a Smartboard that allows me to project my lessons for all students to become engaged in.

A learning environment needs to be clean and inviting.

It is also important to have the necessary technology for the instructors and the students. My plan is to use the posters to increase students’ knowledge related to computer science and inspire and motivate them to be the best people they can be!

I plan on using the projector for videos along with whole group instruction and clarification for specific questions to allow all students to benefit from challenges. The microphone, mouse, Bluetooth speaker, headphones, etc., will also assist in classroom instruction reaching a high level of preparation for students to function to the best of their ability in the 21st century.
