Mrs. Alston from Fayetteville NC is requesting computers & tablets through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Hi-Tech Needed in the Classroom!

My students need Chromebooks for practicing their technological skills, participating in researching information, Stem projects, Literacy, math, and coding activities.

My Students

My students are enthusiastic and eager to learn, especially when given the opportunity to learn through the use of technology.

Some of my students come from military families and move from place to place.

They have to live with one parent being absent from their lives and still maintain their grades despite their parent/s' military obligations. About one-third of my students come from low-income homes.

My Project

My classroom has a limited amount of technology for the students to use effectively. There are times when a student gets upset because others are using the Chromebooks, and it isn't his/her time to use the Chromebooks.

Students love to use the technology available to them in the classroom.

While the students complete various tasks on the Chromebooks, learning is taking place in literacy, math, during documentation of STEM projects, coding, and for research in all subjects.

The Chromebooks will be used to merge technology with the various learning styles of students, boost critical thinking skills, and teach coding in the classroom.
