Apples Aren't Just For Teachers Anymore, Kids Need Them Too!
Funded Oct 17, 2014Thank you so much for our Macbook laptop! The kids were so excited to receive this! They consider it a privilege to be able to use this computer and the iPads. So, I've actually been able to use this as a reward for meeting my classroom expectations. The students love the fact that this computer is so user friendly. They have been researching earthquakes and volcanoes in Science class using technology. They also were able to get some information on smallpox. This topic goes along with a novel we are reading. Many of the students were reading about smallpox in the novel, but kept asking what it was. So, I took this teachable moment and decided to have them do a little research using the computers. Having this extra computer and iPads in the classroom has allowed more of my students to utilize technology to help boost their education. I would love to someday have enough laptops for every one of my students! Thank you so much for caring about education and contributing to my students! We truly appreciate you!”

Learning "App"ortunities
Funded Oct 29, 2013My students are so thankful for these iPads!! When I told them that we were receiving them, they cheered and clapped!! Having these iPads has allowed my students to have the opportunity to research Social Studies fair topics here at school. Many of them do not have their own computers and do not have the transportation necessary to get to a library. They now feel successful and have completed their research papers thanks to these resources!! We are currently using the ipads for various reading and science apps to help with testing strategies for the upcoming ILEAP test. Thank you again so much for your kindness and generosity. You have truly helped to make a difference in our classroom!!”
