Mrs. Tracy from Philadelphia PA is requesting computers & tablets through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Laptops for Learning

My students need laptops for learning and exploring the web independently!

My Students

I teach for the School District of Philadelphia. Funding can be limited, and I would like to provide the best tools for instruction for my future students.

With technology on the run, I want my students to be prepared for their future!

I share laptops with another teacher, and only a few students can use them at a time. This makes research projects and interactive classrooms impossible! My students need to learn how to navigate, type, and do research on a computer for their success.

My Project

With interactive lessons, google classrooms, multiple research projects, and a world where technology has hit the ground running, it is necessary for students to be taught how to use computers, type on computers, use the internet, and be a part of a google classroom to get the best education they deserve. My classroom lacks technology, and only allows 3-4 students to use a computer at once. This makes a whole lesson to teach impossible with 30 students. Your donation will provide more laptops for my students so they can work in small groups and navigate their way through web and the keyboard to be prepared for their future!
