My Students

As a 7th grade math teacher, finding new ways to motivate my students can be challenging. Students enjoy using technology to practice and review skills based on the Common Core State Standards. One of my goals this year is to have my students become more math literate through technology.

My school is in an urban setting where a large number of students have diverse needs.

Because of this, I find that grabbing their interest and meeting their individual needs is best done through technology. They look forward to any opportunity to access online programs since many of them do not have Internet access at home. When my students work with technology, they become more excited, inventive, and enthusiastic about the tasks at hand. Technology also allows my computer-savvy students to use their skills to assist classmates who might be struggling. Technology limitations have affected my ability to provide my students with every opportunity to reach a higher potential.

My Project

7th grade is a crucial year for my students since their standardized test scores will determine which high school they will attend. Using technology is a fun and exciting way to assist them in strengthening their math skills. My students will use the Chromebooks to utilize extra help and online tutoring provided by our math program, giving them a better understanding of the lessons. Additionally, we often receive new students who are non-English speakers. Chromebooks will give them access to a whole world of information that I would be normally unable to provide them. How awesome it would be if students could reach for their Chromebook whenever they a had a question or they needed a little more help in understanding a new math concept!

Thank you for your kindness and generosity.

Through your donations my students will be able to use their love of technology to develop a better understanding of math. You will have inspired their curiosity and given them the tools to achieve great success in math and reach their math performance goals.
