I teach in what is a tight-knit community with great parental support. I see education is important in the area. My school has more than 500 students from Pre-K through fifth grade. In Pre-K, center work is crucial to the learning atmosphere. The problem often lies with lack of funding for additional supplies.
My students are energetic, lovable and eager to learn.
We would love to have help with a new computer center. Could you please help us with this project? It would be appreciated!
My Project
Bill Gates stated, "Technology is just a tool. In terms of getting the kids working together and motivating them, the teacher is the most important." With that said, please know that I am a teacher who loves using technology in my classroom. I know having a new computer would benefit my students.
Since we live in a technological world I enjoy providing technology-rich lessons to my students.
A new computer would allow me to provide this for my students since my current computer is outdated. With the new upgrades for XP computers in 2014, it slowed down our computers. Our classroom computers are old and we truly need to start working on faster and more efficient computers for my students. As a teacher, I know the importance of focusing on different student levels. I have no doubt, that the use of a new faster computer could be more productive with independent centers to increase reading and math skills levels. Our current XP's have served us well through the years, but an upgrade is needed. With a Windows 10, it would alleviate me having to stop lessons to assist with frozen computers and such. My students use our computers daily in centers. Even as Pre- K students, they learn so quickly with computers. I know my little ones could benefit from a new computer.
With a technology goal on the horizon and hope of new equipment, I plan to continue moving forward for my students to have a productive 21st-century environment.
