My Students

I am a third-grade teacher at a wonderful school that has a very high refugee population! Our students come from all over the world. We have very limited funds. I need a few more computers to have a computer center.

My goal is to create a tech center in my classroom!

I only have a couple laptops, but not enough to have a computer center. It would be great to have computers to help students work on other skills independently.

My Project

A have a few Chromebooks in my classroom, but not enough to have a computer center. I usually have 6 students in each of my centers, however, I only have 4 Chromebooks. I need a couple more Chromebooks to have a computer center.

My students would love to practice reading and math skills independently!

After teaching my students for a majority of the time, it would be nice for them to practice their skills independently. Technology is an engaging learning tool for students and I would love for my students to be able to use it to learn different skills.
