My students need new technology to push their writing skills forward. These materials will allow them to take a paper from verbal research to drafted to being printed and submitted.
My kids are absolutely incredible. They come from extremely diverse backgrounds, they work so hard in and out of school to prepare for their futures, and love their community. Specifically the students this project would be helping are in high school and could use more easily accessible technology in their classrooms.
The students I serve are some of the top performing students in our state, yet due to allotment of state funding rules we don't get as much funding as we'd like.
Helping us complete this goal would totally change the types of learning they are able to complete in our upper level school.
My Project
My goal is to eventually have a Chromebook for every student in my class. This particular project will allow us to work on college essays, poetry projects, and so much more. Not only will students have a computer on which to write, but they will also add Alexa technology into our room - meaning they can verbally inquire such questions as "What is the current tuition at Harvard?" without having to get a computer out.
The additional ink will allow my students the ability to print their works, edit them, and exchange with their peers without the added worry of having printer money with them to print on one of the school's printer.
We are really hoping to take our writing to the next level with the funding of this project.
