Ms. G. from SC is requesting instructional technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Listening to Online Tutorials Improves Comprehension

My students need headphones to use during the computer rotation to effectively complete their independent work. Each student spends 1/2 of the class period on the computer.

My Students

The 8th grade students I teach come from a variety of ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds. We have a high free or reduced lunch rate, and many students come to school without the basic supplies they need to function in the classroom. Many have limited support at home, so the only guidance and attention they receive is from the faculty and staff at our school.

We are not a wealthy population in terms of economics, but we are rich with dreams for bright futures!

My Project

The key to success with personalized online math practice and enrichment programs is being able to hear the tutorials and tune out other classroom noise. My students spend half their class time on the computers with these programs, so headphones are essential - and in use 250 minutes each school day. In addition to hearing the lessons, headphones also keep chatting with neighbors to a minimum, which increases focus on what students should be doing.

Your generous donation to my project will improve student success with online math programs in my class, which will directly impact achievement in their core math classes.

School budgets are continually being cut, so we often try to make do with what we have. Funding this project will help give my students the opportunity to realize their goal of math proficiency.
