Let's Close the Distance in Distance Learning

Help me give my students high quality lessons and technology driven instruction to enhance the learning now and beyond the classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Yates's classroom raised $1,515

This project is fully funded

My Students

Help me create high-quality instruction to enhance the learning now and beyond.

My students see the value of high-level math applications and realize the importance of maintaining their math skills during the Covid-19 crisis.

For many of my students, their favorite subject is not math. So, I need to be able to create personalized and relative lessons to gather and maintain everyone's attention for online learning.

My students are ready for computer-based education, but I do not have all of the technological resources for them.

I would like to have an iPad so that I can give my students the quality education they all deserve.

My Project

I will use this iPad to create new and engaging lessons for distance learning now and beyond the Covid-19 crisis. With the iPad, I will be able to work on a variety of class activities including research assignments, student discourse, group projects, interactive activities, and various apps.

Help my students enhance their education by giving me the resources they I need.

Technology is a crucial part of today's learning environment and each student should have access to a computer and the internet. Unfortunately, most lesson and activities found on the internet are not able to communicate the skills to high school students. I want to make sure I am able to create new and engaging lessons to help reach my students and their needs.
