Ms. Hayes from Mullins SC is requesting instructional technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

I Can Not See! It is too Blurry!

Help me give my students a document camera so they can see the resource or document that I am trying to share in class or virtually.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

I teach first graders who are growing confident in themselves each day while also facing the challenges of poverty, and so much more. My students are special to me because this is my first group of students that I only get to see two days out of the week, yet they are trying their hardest to learn and I am giving it my all to reach every single in the two days that they attend school. I want to ensure they have the best and that my classroom provides them with an optimal learning experience. My students are excited to work and learn, but with minimum resources, my students often lack the educational experience they deserve. My students enjoy hands-on activities, technology, and books!

My Project

An updated document camera would help my students to be able to see the resources that I present without students having to worry about not being able to see. Our class current document camera gets blurry if you zoom in too much, but when it is zoom out students cannot see without being on the carpet. This year, students cannot sit on the carpet all at once. Also, our district frequently have virtually weeks depending on the number of COVID cases when presenting a document virtually using my document camera it is blurry, not enough light, or too much light. My current document camera is from 1975 and certainly needs to be replaced to benefit my student's educational needs.
