Ms. Lehr from Temperance MI is requesting technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Itching for iPads

My students need 5 IPads that will be used in small groups to support both literacy and math instruction at the appropriate level for each child.

My Students

"Everything I ever needed to know I learned in kindergarten." There is so much truth in that old saying! Each morning 25 energetic 5 and 6 year-Olds tumble into my classroom eager to share stories and learn new things. Help me meet each of their needs by providing much needed technology resources.

25 of the cutest kids you'll ever meet who come from all walks of life, many of whom already have stories that would make you cry... babies being raised by Grandma's and aunts who are doing their absolute best.

Our school is a Title 1 building, which means that a very high percentage of our children qualify for free and reduced lunches. We are located in a small town just north of the Toledo border.

My Project

My goal is to use the iPads in small groups (centers) to support literacy and math instruction, problem solving, and teamwork. Students will be able to access apps to reinforce classroom lessons and provide necessary practice at each child's instructional level. I am most excited about using the tools for writing projects, as the IPads will allow the children to dictate their own stories, conduct age appropriate research, and add photos.

Without a donation, there is no way I can provide this resource for my students.

I am tired of lamenting the system and limited resources. Please help provide my students with the tools being used by more affluent learners.
