Mrs. Kerstetter from Knoxville TN is requesting technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Putting Technology in the Hands of All Students!

My students need an iPad mini with a charger to increase technology use in my classroom. The case will be used to protect the iPad so that students can use it for years to come.

My Students

Students love technology and there are so many wonderful ways to use it in the classroom.

My school is located in Tennessee.

We are a very large school with over 1,000 students. Because of our large population, we struggle having all the resources we need to reach all of our students. My boys and girls love to play at recess, and they love to discover new ways to learn information.

My Project

By adding another iPad, case, and charger to my classroom, I will essentially be placing another computer into the hands of my students. Students will use the iPad during math and reading groups to access one of the many wonderful programs already purchased through our school or to work on one of the grade level appropriate apps that I have purchased. Students will use this iPad across the curriculum and throughout the day.

This donation will mean so much to my students by helping us have our hands on technology and be able to give all students the same opportunities.

Students won't have to fight over the technology that is in the room and more students will have the ability to learn from the programs and apps that have already been purchased.
