My Students
Technology is the campfire around which we tell our stories. –Laurie Anderson
This year, we were very fortunate that our principal allocated funds for new technology in the classroom.
New iPads will be available to my students to use for daily math and literacy interventions.
Our school houses over twelve hundred students in kindergarten through fifth grade. We are an underfunded, Title I school, in an inner city, where many ethnicities come together to learn and explore while speaking over forty languages! The students in my second grade class are a diverse bunch! The majority of them speak English as a second language, while others receive learning support for different needs. Most of the students came to my class reading below grade level. They never experienced kindergarten and lack the resources at home to develop their abilities.
My Project
Our is school is very fortunate that we have access to research-based intervention programs for literacy and math. These programs have been successful tools in my classroom for ELLs, struggling readers, and my special education students. Therefore, using the interventions on the computer are part of our daily routine. Providing my students with headphones will allow them to focus on the intervention and not be distracted by others.
Donations to this project will make a huge difference in my class!
Due to budget cuts in our district, supplies are limited. Parents have limited income, and I hate to keep asking for things they can't afford. The headphones we have are used daily and don't survive the everyday use of 30 students. Your thoughtful donation of headphones will provide my students with access to learning interventions that will help them succeed. My students will continue to shine and demonstrate their learning and creativity with your generosity!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
