Mr. Dutton from Oakland CA is requesting instructional technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Help Revitalize Mr. Dutton's Classroom!

Help me give my students new headphones to better focus on their work, find comfort in the classroom with new floor seating choices, and store their books on our bookshelves with a set of book bins.

My Project

Our class of second graders is a curious, lively, and hardworking bunch. They love to learn, and they love their classroom. I inherited our classroom at the start of this school year, and it's become our home. But we're in need of an update!

Our class set of headphones started off the year well, but quickly, one by one, the headsets started to show their age.

Fuzzy audio, intermittent connection, and sometimes no audio at all has lead to frustration and makes it harder for students to focus on their own work when they use their Chromebooks.

A new set of floor seating chairs would be immensely helpful for students when they need time to themselves in our quiet corner! Our beanbags are worse for wear, being some what deflated.

Book bins would be a great way to help de-clutter the students' desks and give them a place to store their books when it's time to put them away!
