As a teacher in a low-income school district, I see that my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences.
My students are creative, clever and very spontaneous.
They like to move, they love to read and love lots of positive attention. A majority of the students are being raised in single-parent households and receive a free lunch based on their socioeconomic status. These things may prevent them from getting ahead early in life and may not provide them with the life experiences many of us see as "typical". From the minute they walk in the door of my classroom I focus on their potential and growth while they are with me. I may not be able to control their home lives, however, I can certainly control their experience during the school day. By doing this in a creative and positive way, I am hoping to inspire even our earliest learners to continue on a path of academic excellence.
My Project
We recently received funding from a previous DonorsChoose.org Project to purchase Kindle Tablets. We have now received those tablets, but are needing tablet cases, screen protectors and a charging station.
My students are extremely excited to utilize their tablets, but we want the tablets to be around for a while.
So we need to protect our investment!
The charging station will come in handy to charge our new tablets. The will be centrally located in a safe location. Each student will have access to these tablets. We want to ensure they are protected and safe for as long as possible!
