Touchscreen Technology for Exceptional Learners
Funded Oct 25, 2019Please accept my most sincere gratitude for your generous donation for updated technology for my classroom. My students are able to access learning materials that are tailored for their individual needs.
Three of the Chromebooks purchased with your donations are touchscreen enabled and can be used both as a laptop and/or a tablet. Not only does this eliminate some of the motor skill requirements for using a mouse, it is critical that my students are able to practice using the most up to date technology possible so that they will continue to generalize the skills they use in class for the remainder of their learning careers and into adulthood.
Chromebooks also allow for further inclusion with the general education classes. Some of the features my students use on these devices include speech to text and text to speech so that they are able to develop language skills and access content that may be beyond their ability to decode independently. Thank you again for your support for all learners!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Pierce
We're On Fire For Technology!
Funded Jan 30, 2017Thank you so much for your generous donation for Kindle Fire tablets! These have become a useful and integral part of our school day. My students are excited to practice their letters, sounds, numbers, and even writing on tablets. All of my students require repeated practice in as many modes as possible to gain and generalize academic and functional skills. Kindle Fire tablets provide an additional mode of practice that is motivating and constantly changing. They love the music, games, and interactive apps. My students face many challenges, and your donation has made their lives a little easier. Thank you!!”
With gratitude,
