My Project

I would like to purchase the MacBook Pro to allow us to share pictures and create videos. My students are constantly taking pictures of their work and asking me to videotape their learning. A Macbook would allow us to easily create videos using the iMovie software. We would then share these videos and pictures with the class.

The students work would showcase their learning and success.

They are proud of their accomplishments, and would like to share it to their parents and other classrooms. This would give us the opportunity to do so. Thank you so much for your support.
