Mrs. Congelosi from Machias ME is requesting instructional technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Reaching All Students, Even When We Are Six Feet Apart

Help me give my students a good view of the books we read with this document camera. Our classroom has students spaced far apart, and it can be hard to see from the back of the room.

My Students

My students live in a small town in Maine. We are a classroom of energetic and enthusiastic third graders.

My students are eager and excited learners even amid the challenges that this new school year brings.

We are wearing our masks all day and staying 6 feet apart, but they have come to school daily with smiling eyes and ready to learn!

My Project

This document camera will make it easier for my students to see the many different things that we work on throughout the day.

Reading out loud to my students is one of my favorite things to do, but it is so hard to see the pictures if you are spaced six feet apart in a classroom.

I am excited to use the document camera to help them see the illustrations in the books we read together.

I am trying to find better ways during these challenging times to reach my students, and I know this will help.
