"You give us those nice bright colors
You give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world’s a sunny day..."
Paul Simon
My students are amazing!
They are so serious and so creative when they seek out information for their projects. We are a fourth grade class, so most of my students are nine and ten years old. Our school is an inquiry-based IB school in a vibrant urban neighborhood.
My Project
Right now, with 32 students, we have only three computers in the classroom and it limits the students. Laptops don't last forever and despite the best of care, several older Chromebooks in our classroom "died" last year. I would love to have at least eight classroom Chromebooks to give the students the flexibility to use the computer the same way they use books and paper. I don't want them to interrupt their work because they lack a resource!
My students are responsible and are able to use computers for research, composing documents, keeping notes, and collaborating with other students in real time.
We would love to have at least eight Chromebook laptops in our classroom so that class time is maximized and students have the resources they need. This project starts us off with one new Chromebook!
