My students need one Chromebook to replace an original class Chromebook that no longer works. This will again let us have one Chromebook for every student in the class.

My Students
At the front of my classroom is the quote, "Exceed Expectations!" I always encourage my students to go beyond what is expected of them and strive to always work harder, practice more, be better, and to go beyond what teachers, parents, coaches, and friends expect of them.
I teach fifth grade in a public school classroom.
I strive for a happy and active classroom where children enjoy learning and each other. My students enjoy being creative and aspire to do their best in school. I also enjoy showing my students how to use technology and they respond well to the lessons and new experiences. My students come from a variety of backgrounds. Our school qualifies as a moderate poverty school.
My Project
We just need one more Chromebook to complete our class set so that every student has access to a Chromebook throughout the school day. We thought we had enough for each student, but one of our original Chromebooks has expired after a useful life in our class. Students find it easy to use the Chromebook to access websites in order to reinforce skills taught in the classroom using computer assisted learning over the Internet done at the student's own level and pacing.
We also use the Chromebooks to research or work together on small group projects or individual creative projects. My class enjoys using websites that reinforce the skills related to the Common Core. Some websites are provided by the school, and others are paid for with a subscription price. If we have always available and easy to turn on and use Chromebooks in the classroom, then my students will have the ability to access these websites at any time throughout the school day.
Donations to this project will help my class access and interact with others through the Internet using the easy-to-use Samsung Chromebook.
It will complete our class set, so that every student will have their own Chromebook for use in school throughout the day. Students will not have to wait for a turn to use a computer or share when they could be working on their own. Learning will be opened up to them in a much broader way as they work on individual or group projects.
