Students with Learning Disabilities Require "Cool Factor"
Funded Nov 21, 2008I wrote the DonorsChoose.org proposal for a second iPod when I had free time this past summer, and was thrilled to see the message in my inbox last week that it had been funded! I have been really moved over the last three years as I watch my students grow in their understanding of their own unique learning styles and in their willingness to access support without shame. The iPod will help even more students get through all the reading we do here (and enjoy it more). Right now, students sometimes share our one iPod to listen to a book, one ear piece in each of their ears. I love being able to provide our students with technology that will help them be successful. Thank you so much for your generosity!

Students with Learning Disabilities Require the "Cool Factor"
Funded Aug 28, 2007Thank you so much for funding my proposal!!! I just ran in to share the good new with my co-teacher, and I can't wait to let students know tomorrow when our class meets. I told them last year that I would be writing grants for iPods over the summer. How exciting to let them know that we are already on our way.
This will be a great resource to the students whom I serve, and will help them to overcome one of the barriers to accessing the support they need and deserve. I look forward to sharing with you how we've put the iPod to use, particularly in students' English classes.
Thank you,
