My Project
My school recently switched over to a new curriculum that supports the science of reading. Unfortunately, most of the materials, particularly books, are available only online, and we do not have the technology to give each student a computer so that they can do independent reading, so we are really struggling to read independently. In this project, I am asking for a MacBook Air and a hyperdrive.
We will be using the MacBook to access the books that we need to read that are only available online.
In addition, we have some resources in the classroom such as a Cricut machine that students can use during choice time and they need a computer to use the machines.
I am also asking for a hyperdrive so that students can save their work to a drive and so we can hook up to the smartboard.
Thank you for your generous donations, we are so appreciative!!
