Ms. Blednick from North Las Vegas NV is requesting technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Isn't ELMO a Character? No, It's Magic!

My students need an ELMO document camera and a class set of Magic Boards.

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Hooray! This project is fully funded

I teach first grade in a high-need community. I am always looking for ways to make learning and education more engaging and interesting for my students.

At my school, supplies are limited. We often run out of white board markers and paper. Therefore, I am always trying to think of supplies that I can use again and again.

We are asking for an ELMO document camera and a class set of magic boards. The ELMO document camera will allow my students to not only use technology every day, but it will cut down on the need for whiteboard markers. Additionally, I am asking for a class set of magic boards. Again, these boards will allow our class to cut down on the use of expensive whiteboard markers as well as paper.

You will make it possible for our class to always have supplies. By donating an ELMO document camera and a class set of magic boards, you are donating endless hours of learning to my students!
