Help students Learn and Teach with an Elmo!

My students need an Elmo document camera to bring their learning to the big screen. An Elmo will bring read aloud texts, student work samples, and student ideas alive with greater visual access for all students.

My Students

My students come from a variety of backgrounds and experiences. These students live in a metropolitan environment yet their lives vary as much as their names. My students' skills and interests range from reading and writing to art, music, and sports.

My school is one that promotes peace, love, and community building as the cornerstone for a quality education that produces critically thoughtful individuals.

At our school, we work together as a team to set every student up for success!

My Project

Visualizing what you learn is key to accessing and understanding what you learning. An Elmo document camera will allow me to display read aloud texts for all the children to see. It will allow students to share their ideas and teach each other, as we know teaching someone else helps us understand it even better.

An Elmo will bring the classroom alive for all to see.

Working with technology is a must-do for students of the 21st century. Our classroom needs more technology and my students need more exposure to and experience with the high tech resources available today.

With these resources my students will not only be more engaged with what we are learning, but will be empowered to engage one another through teaching, sharing ideas, and critiquing the work of one another.
