The majority of my students are from an urban area. They have chosen to attend our public charter school to be a part of a school whose mission and vision are to provide a well-rounded STEM-based educational experience that fosters leaders, problem solvers, and critical thinkers. Our public charter school inspires, excites, and empowers young learners to embrace the wonders of science, technology, engineering, and math.
Our school receives one-third of the funding traditional public schools in our area receive.
This creates an economic hardship for our school. As a result, we have a challenging time acquiring materials to support our STEM-based curriculum for our students.
My kindergartners will be the second generation to experience our new STEM-based​ school and we're eager to begin this journey together. We have moved into our newly renovated building, and we couldn't be more excited to see what the future holds for the students of our school!
My Project
My students are in need of an iPad and protective case. Our goal is to close the achievement gap and my students often need information presented to them in a different way.
By donating to this project, you will be giving my students the gift of learning Financial Literacy through technology by using an iPad so that they can explore and learn from new and exciting materials.
An iPad can assist them with visual supports, applications, multi-model learning, and positive practice of missing skill sets.
These extended learning activities for Financial Literacy can motivate them and bridge their diverse needs. The iPad can make it possible to easily adapt curriculum in financial literacy, reading, writing, math, art, science, technology, and engineering.
