Teacher Martinez from Hollywood FL is requesting Instructional Technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Paddle Race & Tablet Cases

My students need whiteboard paddles to show their answers during our whole group learning. They also need cases to protect their tablets.

My Students

My class is filled with diversity! My students come to school excited to learn everyday. Most of my students have never been in a school setting before, let alone around other kids. The majority of my students are growing up with their abuela and/or mom around. About half of my students are part of the ELL program, some barely speaking English. But that does not stop my students from learning!! I love teaching, please support our classroom. Thank you for your help!

My Project

Students will be able to use the whiteboard paddles during whole group learning. They will be used to answer questions during language arts and math. Students can write their answers instead of bursting out the answers. The paddles will allow me to check individual answers. We can also have table races to see who answers first. We will save lots of trees because we will not need paper.

I am also requesting Amazon tablet cases.

We currently have three tablets that were donated to our classroom but we have no protection for them. In order for these tablets to last a long life, we need cases for them.
