My Project

Dear Donors,

I am requesting a Macbook Air.

As a teacher in 2024 we have to prepare our students to become leaders and comfortable using technology. By having this device in my classroom, we can use the laptop to make our learning come to life. I can also create lessons for whole group instruction, having students come up during a shared learning experience. Students can also model how to do things for others that utilize technology. The computer can also be used during small group instruction to support students' individual needs. Students can use the computer to help reinforce topics they learned in math, reading, and writing.

Students will succeed in all subject areas. The students are in grade 2 in a Title 1 school and an ICT setting. These are very hard-working students. Let's work together to give students what they need to learn in this era.

I am always trying to bring new and exciting ways of learning to our classroom. Having a computer will open new doors for my students to explore new technology and engage in learning! Please help me bring my project and learning to life!

Thank You,

Ms. Wishy
