My students need 3 Chrome Books to use technology in every subject during the school day. My goal is for every student to have access to their own computer.
This is the technology generation! Children today are using technology in all aspects of daily life. Help us to put a computer into the hands of every student in my classroom to fully integrate technology into their daily educational lives!
My students are awesome kids who attend a suburban K-5 elementary school.
They love using technology and are very inspired in class when technology is part of their learning experience. This year, they have learned that using technology is far more than playing games. They have participated in a "Flipped Classroom" environment and have used technology to research, compose, and present information in exciting and meaningful ways. These students are hungry for more technology. They are ready to make independent educational decisions and to use technology as a daily tool to help them make those decisions. My students are children who would soar with unlimited access to a technological tool that fully integrates our curriculum with daily learning!
My Project
Funding this project will place a Chrome Book in the hands of each student in my classroom. Students will learn how to access the "drive" features where they will be able to communicate with their teacher and peers. They will be able to complete projects in the drive and create an active and ongoing digital portfolio. Students will have access to the educational "apps" through Google Chrome. These apps will enable each students to make educational decisions about the tools they need to complete a given task. Students will be able to access teacher made tasks that are specifically differentiated for their level of instruction. These tasks may be supported by on-line or teacher made videos as well as interactive spreadsheets for collecting student information. A Chrome Book in the hands of every students paints the picture of an technologically integrated learning environment.
Please consider funding our project!
Donations toward this request will make a difference in the daily learning environment of my students. Our children live in a world full of technology. It makes sense that we integrate technology into our daily learning lives too! Thank you for reading my request and for your consideration of this project.
