My Project

Our school was able to provide Chromebook laptops for each student, but our first graders do not have a lot of experience with computers at such a young age. An iPad will offer more opportunities for educational games and touchscreen learning that will accommodate young learners.

Thanks to donors’ generosity, our class has one of three iPads that will enhance my students’ ability to interact and access electronic books and educational games for learning, as well as assist with digital assessments.

It is important for us to provide resources to help students grasp academic concept skills they will be expected to master in the upcoming school years. This resource can be especially helpful for visual and kinetic learners. Thank you for your generosity and caring so much for kids and their education. These are our future leaders and it is our responsibility to equip them with the best resources we can provide.
