Help me give my students a MacBook laptop to teach 21st century skills by being able to utilize technology to show examples of using math in the real world!
Making math exciting for fourth grade students is nearly impossible. By having better resources, such as a MacBook, I can access more technological advanced lessons and activities for my students.
One specific way I plan to use the MacBook is by having students record themselves teaching a lesson so students can learn from each other.
This allows students to teach the content themselves and it gives students a different way of hearing the content.
Another way the MacBook will be used is when we create songs to help memorize math rules. We like to record ourselves and upload the video to watch and send to other classrooms.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
