My Students

Whether you think you can...or think you can't...You are right. Math can be a frustrating time in our Shining Star classroom. Math can bring on anxiety and self doubt. The opportunities that the iPad Pro can bring to our classroom are countless.

My Shining Star students are wonderful students who strive to do their best.

We are a Title 1 school where children from a wide range of socio economic and educational backgrounds attend . We offer Universal Breakfast at our school so that every child can start the day with a healthy breakfast that is free. The children who attend our school often struggle core subjects such as Reading and Math. I strive to give students every opportunity possible to succeed.

My Project

The iPad Pro with covers would be a valuable resource in our classroom. The iPad Pro is a sturdy device that has access to many Math APPS that will provide my students with opportunities to be efficient Mathematicians. The device will be linked to a variety of Math activities that students may access on a daily basis as a part of our Math Workshop instruction. The activities that are available on the iPad Pro are fun, engaging and educational and will provide my students with many opportunities for success.

You can make a difference with your donation by helping my students to have an avenue for success in Math.

We know that when it comes to Reading, the more you read, the better you read. It is the same with Math. The more opportunities that you have to practice Math fluency, the more fluent you will be. This device will help my students become confident and efficient Mathematicians.
