Journalism Here We Come

My students need 30 Acer Chromebooks and a storage cart to make sure they are always charged.

My Students

My students are special because they come from different backgrounds. They look to one another for help and treat each other with compassion and respect.

Having a classroom filled with such diversity is an awesome learning experience, each student is able to bring a different perspective on a multitude of topics.

This helps the entire class look at topics from many angles and really understand the motivation of the characters in our readings. It also leads to in depth classroom discussions.

My Project

Journalism is something that is new to my students and they are loving it. They enjoy coming up with ideas for their articles and interviewing people. We currently lack the proper amount of Chromebooks for the students to be able to use them all day.

The Chromebooks and the storage cart will be instrumental in allowing the kids to become more involved with their articles.

They no longer will need to worry about having access to the Chromebooks. They will be able to use them at any point during the day and focus on creating a quality article. Hopefully this will lead to more students wanting to be part of the journalism club and to having the students be more involved in school activities.
