My Students

When most people go to work, they are greeted by a computer, a register, or a telephone. I get greeted by tiny, smiling faces that are eager to learn. These amazing students are the reason I gladly stay till five at night, come in on the weekends, and toss and turn at night thinking about their successes and areas of improvement.

There is growing scientific evidence that shows students environments greatly impact their ability to learn and their test scores.

My goal create a classroom environment and provide supplies that help students thrive to the best of their ability.

My students are kind, giving, happy and dedicated to their education. Knowing that cheeseburgers are my favorite food, I often hear "Mrs. Crane, meet me in the cafeteria, cheeseburgers are on the menu today. You can share mine with me!" They have pride in who they are, how hard they work at school, and the bond we have made. At my school, more than half of our students are economically disadvantaged, and many come from foster programs and/or are English language learners. Donating to my class today will not only help my current students but also many more to come!

My Project

We are requesting 15 iPads. There are many wonderful things about having iPads in the classroom. In today 21st century technology is extremely important and the sooner we get students exposed to it the more likely they are to thrive in the upper grades. With state testing now being all online students who are use to using technology at and early age will have a better chance at succeeding.

Another amazing thing about have 2-1 iPads is all the apps we will use on the iPads are based on students' individual needs and scores, so they are focusing only on things that directly apply to their educational needs.

iPads will also insure that I can teach in small groups to deliver even more focused goals while the other students independent work on this fun and engaging educational tool. Thank you for considering giving my class and many future classes and extremely important classroom asset.
