My Students

I want my students to be exposed to as much technology as possible by the end of the year to help prepare them for standardized assessments. For that reason, a typical day in my classroom is filled with many fun and exciting activities.

I teach 4th grade to a total of 48 fabulous students.

They have a desire to learn that is absolutely contagious. They come to school every day to learn and soak in as much information as possible. From the time they walk in the door, they are engaged! They are amazing!

My Project

My students need 2 iPad minis and protective cases. My students will use the materials I am requesting daily. The iPads will be used to complete group assignments as well as for extra practice for daily skills. Students will also be able to use many of the exciting apps that are available to help them expand their knowledge.

Our school is an academic magnet school so we do not receive the funding that most schools receive.

Getting these iPads will help my students become part of a technology-rich classroom. Please give to our project. We would greatly appreciate your support.
